14 young refugees from Alrowwad Centre for Culture & Arts in Bethlehem, Palestine are currently touring the UK experiencing life beyond the constraints of their daily lives inside a refugee camp.
Alrowwad uses dance, music and film to help young Palestinian refugees to break the cycle of violence and oppression that they experience daily. They call it, 'Beautiful Resistance'.
The UK tour is showcasing Alrowwad’s take on Palestinian Dabka Dance and is featuring a wide-range of other special guests.
"As Palestinian refugees, we don’t have the luxury
of despair. We choose Beautiful Resistance."
Abdelfattah A Abusrour,
Alrowwad Centre for Culture & Arts
