Ayyha we are the women of jerusalem and we are proud
Ayyha and like us in this world you cannot find
Ayyha raise your voice and say proudly 
Ayyha this land is ours its trees and stones from the top to the bottom

Recorded and mixed by Fadi Tabbal, at Tunefork
2018, Beirut, Lebanon

Written for the project Radio Mansion, a collaboration between The Outpost and Mansion (Beirut)

--------------------------------------------
Radio Mansion راديو مانشن began on May 7 as a seven-week collective experiment to build a 24-hour internet radio at Mansion in Beirut. The radio space then quickly grew into a community outlet, which brought together a myriad of voices, including underrepresented and marginalized groups, to imagine, produce, and transmit new narratives about who they are, where they are, and where they’d like to go. 

In seven weeks the project succeeded in reaching out to and engaging with more than 100 people and community groups, including residents and users of Mansion, social workers, migrant domestic workers, operators of a suicide hotline, people who identify as LGBT, anthropologists, oral historians, teachers, students, poets, comedians, musicians, and artists from Lebanon and the wider region.

This is a very beautiful and sad song by the late Rim Banna ( singer songwriter / activist ) . She was fighting  cancer for a long time and she recently passed ....The least people like me can do, is to honor her by keeping her words alive . 
RIP Rim Banna 
We carry on.... <3

She has taken part in international programs and residencies: Hwaeom Spiritual Music Residency (South Korea, September 2017), Sound Development City (Spain, Morocco, 2016), Gyeonggi Creation Center (South Korea, 2013), OneBeat (USA, 2012) and at La Cité Internationale des Arts in Paris as of January 2020.
