Benefit for Palestinian Family Khaled & Bassam, by ZZW Rafelrand
Short url:
THE BENEFIT OF THIS EVENT HAS CHANGED: DONATIONS GO TO PALESTINIAN FAMILY KHALED & BASSAM
VoKu benefit by ZZW Rafelrand for Khaled & Bassam + let's talk about DIY projects (theme: unrelated) !
Khaled and Bassam and their parents, Ali and Heba, live in northern Gaza. Since October 7th, they have been displaced more than 13 times from their home due to the continues bombing of people's homes in Gaza. Even the so proclaimed 'safe' areas where they fled to have been bombed, leaving nothing left and everything distroyed. Last Tuesday night, the street in front of their shelter was bombed. Ali's brother was killed. Through a friend who is in contact with them, we hear the most horrified stories come through every week. The family of Khaled and Bassam is just one of many Palestinians who are being displaced, under threat and being killed by the Israeli genocide regime.
The benefit is held by ZZW Rafelrand, a patchwork of communities living and creating in one of the last frayed edges of Amsterdam East, on Zeeburgereiland. Excisting since over 40 years, the whole neighborhood is scheduled for demolition in December 2024. The community neighborhood - ZZW, artist ateliers, Fort Knox, One Peaceful World, Cruise In, etc - will be fully demolished for a new neigborhood.
Since September 2023, we - a small team of DIY film enthusiasts - started following the story of the neighhborhood to create a DIY documentary film. We combine everyday life with community activism: solidarity networks & events, a symbolic funeral, endless negotiations with the municipality, a summer free for all festival, etc. But we also create funky scenes to show the creativity residing in the neighborhood and to show its funky spirit. We would love to take you along this journey and start talking about DIY projects!
Join the VoKu for a delicious meal, a chat, and join to help Khalled & Bassam into safety!
