Tadhamon solidarity choir sends songs, photos and messages of support for #spbr20

The Tadhamon singers have put together a vast set of a wonderful songs, readings, messages and photos as their small park BIG RUN DIY activity. We will be posting these on our social media channels over the 24 hours of the small park BIG RUN. You can find these below.

Tadhamon means ‘Solidarity’ in Arabic. They formed the choir several years ago to sing in solidarity with the people of Palestine.

We thank you Tadhamon from the bottom of our hearts for this wonderful effort!

Carolyn and Sian:
“Sending love and solidarity – Thinking of all the children of Gaza and their families; they are unconvicted inmates of the world’s largest walled ghetto and prison, refugees of Israel’s relentless home demolitions, apartheid and ethnic cleansing, they have been denied basic human rights, dignity, freedom and justice for more than sixty years. And the Palestinian children who live under a brutal, racist military occupation in the West Bank”
مرثية لطفل فلسطيني
عشت قدر استطاعتي، وبعدها متّ
إحذر أين تخطّـو: فالقبر واسع
I lived as best I could, and then I died.
Be careful where you step: the grave is wide.          
Epitaph for a Palestinian Child”

“My longest run ever – thank you for all the support along the way Rachel! – 60 mins 7k (Strava did not record it all!) – in solidarity with all Palestinians – it’s been 72 years since they had to leave their homes. Free Palestine!”
Going round and round and round!
