ECH co-founder Jamelie Hassan to participate in Toronto Palestine Film Festival Panel

9/21/2020

Jamelie Hassan will be part of a Toronto Palestine Film Festival (TPFF) discussion panel on Cultural Suppression and Revival on Saturday September 26, 2020. The panel will explore the silencing of Palestinians voices in the cultural sector, as well as showcasing artists reviving Palestinian culture in their work.

“I am honoured to add my voice to such a distinguished panel and be together with those who stand in solidarity with Palestine and culture here in Canada and across communities internationally. TPFF is inspiring and full of surprises... it's introduction of kid-friendly programs - its intergenerational dynamic that appeals to all audiences - grandparents, moms and dads and everyone else, drawn together from Toronto's BIPOC, cultural workers, activists, secular and civil society communities, keen to discover what's new and urgent in Palestinian culture."
