I'm so thrilled that Peace United's a part of "Notes Against the Ban"--a timely and inspired concert featuring music from the seven "mostly Muslim" countries listed on President Trump's executive order banning immigration. The musicians include locally known and celebrated artists, internationally recognized composers and many, many more. At the heart of all this is the Bay Area's own Aswat Ensemble, the premier Arab music ensemble in Northern California.
We're hoping to pack the house and show our friends, from around the world, that we're serious about their friendship and serious about making this community safe for all.
There are all kinds of ways to protest bigotry and nationalism. And there are all kinds of ways to resist a government that seems determined to harass our neighbors and friends and fellow citizens. On November 11, we do it through the gift of music, the thrilling courage of composers and artists in our midst.
You can go directly to the ticket page here...and we hope you'll invite your friends to join you!
