Mobilization Against War and Occupation presents....
From the streets of New York City 1979 to the Gaza Strip 2006, Hip-hop has grown to become a colossal phenomenon impacting popular music all over the world -- across borders, cultures, and languages.
Hip-hop is the voice of youth, people of colour, and oppressed people internationally as an outlet of expression, creativity, and resistance.
Join Mobilization Against War & Occupation (MAWO) from July 21-23 to experience the voices of resistance in Hip hop today...
