The purpose: of the Solidarity Festival is to raise the voices of Palestinian and other artists who resist the domination of their communities, through music. Palestinians are the largest and longest displaced refugee communities in the world and IDP’s (internally displaced persons) as a result of Israel’s occupation, Apartheid wall and illegal settlements - with no hope for a just solution in the foreseeable future.
