Cultural workers for Palestine - Use Knife

Free City Radio

On this edition of Cultural workers for Palestine we hear from Belgian musicians Kwinten Mordijck and Stef Heeren speaking about their collaboration with Iraqi vocalist/percussionist Saif Al-Qaissy, as Use Knife. This interview goes into the sound of the project but also the cultural landscape in western Europe within which the project was shaped. This project speaks to the profound impact and influence that mixing of contemporary western European artists with cultural workers from Diaspora communities has created today. This collaborative space has not only created new sounds and ground breaking cultural work but also totally shifted collective understandings around the urgency of supporting the Palestinian freedom struggle today.
