SUMMARY:Masahat 2023 åpningskonsert: TARABBAND
DESCRIPTION:-20:00 doors open \n-20:30 concert \nTARABBAND is coming to Oslo for the first time to open Masahat festival 2023! \nThe band’s name comes from the Arabic word Tarab\, meaning “ecstasy through music”– and we promise you a no less thrilling concert than what the name reveals! \nJoin us on Thursday\, 21 September at Melahuset and get ready to immerse yourself in a cross-cultural musical experience\, sung in universal Arabic lyrics and performed with a fusion of folk and Middle Eastern melodies that make you want to leap out of your chair and dance. \nTarabband is a six-member group founded in 2008 by Iraqi-Egyptian Nadin Al khalidi and Swedish Gabriel Hermansson in Malmö\, Sweden. With Nadin Al Khalidi’s charismatic and sensitive voice\, Tarabband music takes off from Malmö\, travels via Paris and the Mediterranean to Cairo and Baghdad creating the band’s original compositions and sound. \nThe group’s front figure and vocalist Nadin Al khalidi fled from Iraq in 2001 arriving to Sweden as a refugee. Her lyrics merge political and social topics along with questions around identity\, survival and love. \nA unique live band with influences from North Africa\, the Middle East and Europe – parts of the world where they have reaped enormous success\, this year Tarabband is celebrating their 15th year anniversary with their fifth album “Yekhaf” – Arabic for “afraid of me”. “Yekhaf” is based on human encounters and situations that the singer and lyricist Nadin Al Khalidi has been involved with in recent years. The texts in Arabic weave together stories about people and life’s destinies that are going on in parallel in different corners of the world – in Malmö\, in the Jordanian Wadi Rum mountains\, in Iraqi Mosul\, in Cairo and in Baghdad\, where Nadin was born and grew up. \nWhen the musicians in Tarabband meet\, they together create vibrant and touching soundscapes that invite you to dance\, feel and think of the stories behind the lyrics and the melodies. \nThis concert is in collaboration with Melahuset \n.

SUMMARY:Pasts that persist: Iraq and Palestine
DESCRIPTION:Pasts That Persist: Perspectives from Iraq and Palestine \nWelcome to this breakfast seminar at PRIO. Free entrance but registration is required through this link \nTwo decades after the 2003 invasion of Iraq and three decades following the Oslo Accords\, these two anniversaries are heavily contested and remembered in the West including Norway. Iraqi and Palestinian populations continue to grapple with the profound impact of these historical events. This panel brings together expert voices from Iraq and Palestine to explore the multifaceted dimensions of collective memory\, creating historical narratives and the shaping of political struggles. \n2003 was meant to herald a new era for Iraqis\, one of freedom and choice. Twenty years on from the invasion\, in a country where over half the population was born during or after the invasion\, where do things stand? How do Iraqis look back at this historical event and where do Iraqi people think things stand? Aida Al-Kaisy\, co-founder of independent Iraqi website Jummar\, will discuss these questions with a particular focus on a post-Tishreen Iraq and the impact of demands for change by young people. \nThe panel then transitions to the three-decade mark since the Oslo Accords. What does the future of peace negotiations look like after thirty years of a failed process? Nadim Khoury will look at current trends in peace negotiations that bypass Palestinians to normalize relations between Israel and Arab states. The trend\, which was set in motion by the Trump administration\, is\, in fact\, not so new. It echoes diplomatic initiatives prior to the Oslo agreements (1967-1993) that negated Palestinians altogether. In brief\, the future of peace initiatives looks like its past. In both cases\, it excludes the Palestinians. \nThe seminar is moderated by Jørgen Jensehaugen\, Senior Researcher at PRIO. \n  \nThis event is in collaboration with PRIO Middle East Centre

But what history is that\, and how well do you really know those who came before you? Masahat invites you to take a deep dive into history writing and the struggle to own your own\, everyday history. Are you sure you actually know the whole story? \nLECTURE: “RECLAIMING HISTORY: PEOPLE\, POWER\, AND ARCHIVES” WITH KHALED FAHMY \nHow do you take ownership of your own history after being written out of it for generations? In Norway\, we have tried to find out how we can democratize history writing and cultural heritage policy to include diverse stories where the majority and minority populations are represented. Whether we have succeeded in this process is up for debate. \nIn the Arab world\, schools\, museums\, and national archives celebrate the state’s history and “great men”\, while the people’s history is erased and forgotten. Based on his research in the Egyptian National Archives\, the Egyptian historian and academic Khaled Fahmy will reflect in his lecture on his own attempt to break this silence by telling the story of the average Egyptian. \nDISCUSSION: KHALED FAHMY AND MICHELLE TISDEL \nAfter the lecture\, Khaled Fahmy will meet Michelle A. Tisdel for a conversation on identity\, history writing\, and the meeting point the archives\, cultural heritage and definitional power in narrating history in Norway and the west. The conversation will be moderated by Rana Issa.  \nFILM SCREENING: “SALATA BALADI” (EGYPTIAN SALAD)\, (2008\, 105 minutes) \nThis documentary explores the complex cultural and religious heritage of the Egyptian filmmaker Nadia Kamel’s own family. Her mother has Jewish and Christian Italian origins\, and converted to Islam when she married Kamel’s Turkish-Ukrainian father. Accompanied by her 80-year-old mother and her 10-year-old Palestinian nephew\, Kamel embarks on a journey to Italy and Israel in an attempt to tell the story of an Egypt that no longer exists.

SUMMARY:Toumba (DJ set) / Blå
DESCRIPTION:Buy tickets | لشراء البطاقات \nBorn and raised in Jordan\, DJ and producer Yazan Zyadat\, aka Toumba\, is now based in London\, where he fashions lithe club bangers that melt Middle Eastern elements with dubstep basslines and clattering breaks. Last year he experienced a flurry of interest when Ben UFO’s Hessle Audio label released his “Petals” EP and Zyadat was able to broadcast his unique sounds on a larger platform. Tonally ambitious and deviously percussive\, his music takes the essence of Arabic tarab and shelat forms (often seen as wedding music) and dilutes it in a dance floor-ready roil of booming bass and dissociated synths. \nSupporting acts: DJ Daeva opening + 𒀭unnaki closing \n— \nDaeva /opening/ \nNasim aka Daeva is an Oslo-based artist and DJ born and raised in Tehran. Since 2004\, Daeva has featured heavily on Oslo’s club and festival scene\, via Cosmopolite\, Blå\, Khartoum\, Dattera\, the National Museum\, Riksscenen\, the Munch Museum\, Mela Festival\, Oslo Pride and much more. She plays rhythms from all corners of the world with extra emphasis on the Middle East\, the African continent and South America. \n— \n𒀭unnak /closing/ \n𒀭unnaki (read: Anunnaki) explores the origins of mystics through his music. He’ll take you on a stroll at your ancestral graveyard. There you’ll hear heavy kicks\, tappy drums and light symphonies meshed in together with a taste of a tribal belonging. 𒀭unnaki stands behind several underground concepts and has performed at Ingensteds\, Evrysome\, Melahuset\, Baba Bar and intimate festivals

SUMMARY:Re-membering Communities
DESCRIPTION:Archival Practices in the Arts and the Struggle Against Oppression\nMasahat and the National Museum invite you to a conversation on archival practices in the Auditorium\, with contributions from the founder of Creative Memory of the Syrian Revolution Sana Yazigi\, the Egyptian artist\, curator and independent publisher Maha Maamoun and the Norwegian artist Sille Storihle\, moderated by Khaled Fahmy. \nWhy do artists deploy archives and archival practices as a creative methodology? Why do we need to remember and what is worth revisiting from the past? How do we archive and what relation to the future do we build through archival acts? What do we include\, who do we exclude? How can archives be the building blocks for how we construct or revise history? \nIn the last decades\, artistic engagement with archives has explored different facets of memory and remembering as social and political acts. Archival interests have especially been prominent amongst artists who seek to challenge state-sanctioned archival practices by questioning official deployments of archival memory as a site of violence against certain excluded groups and communities. Artistic archival memory may collect\, recollect\, recall and insist to tell about moments and modes of repression practiced by the state and its official historians. \nThis panel addresses the question of archives as a tool for dissident forms of artistic expression. We bring two curators\, an artist\, and a historian engaged in dissident remembering practices to explore the potential of archives as tools of protest as well as sites of memory work that re-members social bonds against the fragmentation imposed by the state on disenfranchised communities. \nThe event is comprised of short presentations of ongoing practices of archives and archiving from Syria\, Egypt as well as local Norwegian artistic engagement with archival memory as a critical modality against a history of marginalization and political disenfranchizement. \nPrior to the panel\, there will be a special guided tour in the National museum where Mikael Munz Bakketun will present a collection of work that tackles the questions of history\, archive and political struggles. The guided tour starts at 13.00\, and is free for those who have an entry ticket to the museum. More information about the tour can be found here. \nThis event is organized in collaboration with Ettijahat – Independent Culture\, and Nasjonalmuseet.

SUMMARY:Al Rosanna Dinner
DESCRIPTION:Al Rosanna Dinner: A Levantine culinary odyssey\n\nBuy tickets لشراء البطاقات\n \nWhat does Ibsen’s “Terje Vigen” poem have to do with Al Rosanna and the great famine of Lebanon (1915-1918)? How does food history contribute to our grand national narratives? Can recipes\, food stories\, and memories offer an alternative view to our national imagination? Can we think of the recipes we use and the food we eat as a way to consider how our pasts and futures are connected beyond borders and nation states? \nThese questions and the stories around them are the backdrop of our dinner. \nJoin us at Al Rosanna Dinner for a unique culinary journey that transcends time and space. Step into a world of exquisite flavors as we sail in memory from Røst in north Norway all the way to Beirut to experience the rich heritage of the Levant. \nAl Rosanna Dinner will serve you history\, flavors\, aromas and melodies from Norway\, Lebanon\, Syria\, Palestine and Iraq. Palestinian chef Thurayya Alkury and Norwegian author and cook Andreas Delsett present their own interpretation of the myths of Al Rosanna and Terje Vigen. \n  \nYour ticket includes: \n\nSix-course dinner\nFood weaved with storytelling and music\nMeeting and mingling with Masahat festival guests*\nEntrance to solo concert by Haya Zaatry + club night (DJ Set) by Leila Moon ++ at Blå following the dinner\nPrint-out of a medieval recipe\, retrieved from one of the earliest cook books in history\n\n  \nMenu\n\nBaghdad: Cheese Boreg – savory pastry with side of bitter orange jam\nBeirut: Yalanji – wrapped grape leaves with fresh herbs\nRøst: Fish and grain snack\nAleppo: Fattet Makdous – layered eggplant with crisp bread\, minced lamb meat\, yogourt and pomegranate sauce\nSafad: Walnut Kullaj – sweet pastry served with dried apricot pure\nBack in the times: surprise medieval dish\nBring your own drink!\n\n  \nThe name of the dinner is inspired by Al Rosana\, a popular Levantine folk song which has been recorded over and over by some of the greatest Arab artists of the 20th century\, each giving it a unique flavor. The origins of the story of the song are conflicting and intertwined. \nWe were mostly inspired by Nur Turkmani’s article about Al Rosana “A famine\, a ship and a folk song that spanned borders“ where she writes how oral narratives allow us to reclaim and rewrite histories once silenced by colonialism\, patriarchy and other authoritarian powers. \nSome say Al Rosana (or Rozana) is a large ship that carried food from Italy to Lebanon during Lebanon’s great famine 1916-1918. Others say it carried smuggled wheat from Aleppo merchants to Beirut. Another version of the story revolves around a tragic love story that started in Safad\, Palestine or Mosul in Iraq and ended up in a song in Aleppo. \nSimilar to how Turkmani’s versions of Al Rosana offer new perspectives to view our interconnected pasts and futures\, so do some new critical readings of Norwegian myths\, such as the one of The Norwegian anthropologist Runar Døving who takes a new critical historical reading of the the grand tale of “Terje Vigen”. In this dinner\, we also go back further in time to think about the story of the Italian sailing captain\, Pietro Querini\, who was shipwrecked in Røst in North Norway\, and how\, as he sailed back to Venice\, he took back with him the inspiration to introduce Stockfish into Italian cooking. \nTurkmani goes on to cite Rabih Alameddine in his novel “The Hakawati\,”—or “the storyteller” as he writes: “What happens is of little significance compared with the stories we tell ourselves about what happens. Events matter little\, only stories of events affect us.” \nAl Rosana\, and the many versions of its origin\, are the inspiration for our six-course dinner. \nCome on board\, and as we indulge in the tapestry of Levantine culinary treasures\, let’s re-create and re-tell the stories of our pasts and futures.

SUMMARY:Haya Zaatry (solo concert) / Blå
DESCRIPTION:Buy tickets | لشراء البطاقات\n \nHaya Zaatry’s musical origins stem from acoustic folk\, blending with Arabic musical inflections\, imbibed in the cities that nurtured her: Nazareth and Haifa. \nA self- taught musician and practicing architect\, Zaatry began her musical career with the much lauded “Manakir” (nail varnish) in 2013\, which was featured in 2021 on the Netflix “AlRawabi School For Girls”. \nHer debut album “Rahawan” which addresses intimacies of memory\, space\, gender and time\, was released in 2022\, bringing with it North African influences of electric guitars and groovy flows\, while reverberating the warmth of the indigenous sounds of Haya’s surroundings through percussions\, modal inflections and original field recordings turning spaces of memory into musical markers. \nInspired by Haya Zaatry’s great-great grandmother’s surname\, Rahawan is an album transcending the complicated threads of history\, time and geography and paying tribute to generations of mothers and matriarchs. \nNazira Rahawan (1972-1890) who lends her name to the album was born and raised in Damascus (Syria) and lived between Nazareth and Haifa (Palestine). Nazira was the last person within Haya’s family who lived and roamed the land freely\, before the forceful imposition of man made borders. \nThe album is conceptually designed to reclaim a sense of freedom and belonging which Haya Zaatry herself never had the chance to experience. \nThis concert is in collaboration with AFAC and the Palestinian Committee in Norway. \n\nBuy tickets | لشراء البطاقات

In the circle\, we ask our guests to read excerpts or summarize an article before we open up for discussion. \nIn this reading circle we will start with queer Palestinian novelist and film lover\, Raji Bathish and his translator Suneela Mubayi for a short reading from Raji’s work. Raji is at the forefront of experimental writing in Palestine and the Arab world\, and he will share with us excerpts from his novels that will shake our fundamental paradigms of thinking about Palestine. \nMaha Maamoun is one of the founders of the niche publisher Kayfa ta\, of Russian philosopher Oxana Timofeeva’s pamphlet\, How to Love a Homeland. In this philosophic exercise in critical thinking\, Timofeeva explores the difficulty of reducing one’s sense of homeland to one’s country alone\, the philosophical interconnectedness of movement and rootedness\, our plant and animal souls\, and how we need to reimagine our desired\, fictional if need be\, homelands. \n  \nReading material\n\nSlavic Bodies by Raji Bathish\, translated by Suneela Mubayi\nFifty Shekels by Raji Bathish\nExcerpt from How to love a homeland? by Oxana Timofeeva\, re-published at Mada Masr (2022)\n\nWe love the intimacy of our reading circles\, and the discussion depths we get into together. For this year\, we have two hours to enjoy our Syrian breakfast and thought-provoking literature. Join us and be in the community to discuss and learn from each other!

SUMMARY:Masahat Screens
DESCRIPTION:Masahat Screens\nJoin us on the last day of Masahat festival for a thought-provoking and inspiring Sunday at VEGA Scene with film screenings\, conversations\, mingling and more. \nThe day starts with the screening of Bloody Beans (2013\, 80 mins) directed by Narimane Mari\, which won the top prize at the prestigious documentary festival CPH:DOX. In her hybrid documentary\, Mari experiments with how children can appropriate a complex history while they try to reenact the colonization and the Algerian War of Independence. \nLater in the day\, we will have Orwa Nyrabia\, Artistic Director of IDFA\, as our main guest at Masahat Screens. Under the title “Decolonize the Gaze”\, Nyrabia will talk about his vision and work at IDFA since he became the Artistic Director in 2018\, then he will be joined by Anne Szefer Karlse to continue the conversation and discuss how major festivals and cultural institutions can address the questions of representation\, equity and inclusion. \nWe then end the day with a short films program curated and introduced by Maha Maamoun. \nProgram\n\nPART I: Bloody Beans. Buy tickets HERE.\n\n\n14:30-16:00: Bloody Beans (2013\, 80 mins) dir. Narimane Mari\n\n\nPART II: Conversation + short films. Buy tickets HERE.\n\n16:00-17:15: Decolonize the Gaze with Orwa Nyrabia in conversation with Anne Szefer Karlsen\n17:15-18:00: Mingling + finger food with Orwa Nyrabia and Masahat Screens guests\n18:00-19:00: Litanies against fear (55 mins)\, a short films program curated and introduced by Maha Maamoun\n\n\n\n  \nBloody Beans\n(Loubia Hamra) Narimane Mari I France\, Algeria | 2013 | 77 min\nLanguage: Arabic\nSubtitles: English \nAlready an established producer before she turned to directing\, Narimane Mari is part of an exciting wave of experimental cinema coming from Algeria. Her debut feature\, Bloody Beans\, won the top prize at the prestigious documentary festival CPH:DOX\, though to call it merely a “documentary” is reductive: described in Film Comment as an “expressionistic hybrid\,” Mari’s film is a comedy\, a tragedy about the past\, and a portrait of colonialism in the present. Shot over nine days\, with limited rehearsals and almost no reshoots\, Mari’s film is set at some unspecified point during Algeria’s War of Independence\, and explores the legacy of France’s brutal 132-year occupation of the country through the eyes and energies of children from the Bab El Oued and Bologhine neighborhoods of Algiers. The results are less “kids say the darndest things” than something akin to an hallucinatory experience\, the surreal atmosphere aided by a score from Zombie Zombie. \n\nLitanies against fear\nA short films program curated by Maha Maamoun.\nAn anxiety runs deep in these films. It animates the bodies of the protagonists circumambulating their phantom homes and this film program. Contemporary experiences of separation from home-be they physical or psychological experiences\, find their roots and resonances in narratives of forced displacement\, colonialism and rising fascisms old and new. \n\nOnly When All the Poison Has Gone (The Healing of Emily Ruete) (2023\, 18 min) dir. Doa Aly\n\nOnly when all the poison has gone (The healing of Emily Ruete) is an audio-video installation based on the memoirs and letters of Emily Ruete\, born Salamah bint Said bin Sultan\, Princess of Oman and Zanzibar (1844-1924)\, as introduced by E. Van Donzel in An Arabian Princess Between Two Worlds: Memoirs\, Letters Home\, Sequels to the Memoirs\, Syrian Customs and Usages. Emily/Salamah was prevented from returning to her homeland after eloping with a German merchant. This film seeks to turn the unconscious processes in Emily’s writing into a conscious awareness of movement\, through choreography\, to create an immersive field of healing feminine energy\, a meditation\, using her character as an effigy in a cathartic experience\, for and by her. \n\n30KG Shine (2017\, 20 mins) dir. Shadi Habib Allah\n\n30KG Shine (2017) is a video installation that examines various states of existence-object\, body and spirit – and how they exchange roles and share enmeshed forms of agency. Paying homage to a 1930s urban myth about a ghost that haunted the Old City of Jerusalem\, the film records how an elderly woman\, currently living where the fable is set\, secures her home and family heritage by leading life in confined quarters\, often at the expense of her own livelihood and health. The work also features footage of a ‘tunnel cemetery’ being constructed to house 22\,000 displaced corpses; these bodies claim presence and ownership of the place where they will lie. \n\nCapital (2023\, 17 mins) dir. Basma al-Sherif\n\nReferencing the Italian “white telephone” films of the late 1930s and 40s\, that were considered as precursors to fascist propaganda films\, al-Sherif’s latest film reflects on the grotesque via a purview of contemporary urban planning projects and their promise of comfort and docility.

SUMMARY:Decolonize the Gaze with Orwa Nyrabia
DESCRIPTION:Decolonizing the documentary has been a recurring theme at IDFA\, the world’s largest documentary film festival\, since Orwa Nyrabia became the Artistic Director in 2018. Under his leadership\, the festival has been tackling the difficult questions of representation\, equity and inclusion. \nWho has the power to represent and narrate?

Afterwards\, he will be joined by Anne Szefer Karlsen to continue the discussion on the critical role major festivals and established cultural institutions can play in reshaping the cultural narrative\, acknowledging historical injustices\, and embracing diversity and inclusion. \n  \nThis event is in collaboration with Mirage\, Human IDFF\, Oslo Dokumentarkino and Fritt Ord foundation. \nThis conversation is part of Masahat Screens where we spend the last day of Masahat festival at VEGA Scene. \n  \nMasahat Screens Program:  \nPART I: Bloody Beans. Buy tickets HERE. \n\n14:30-16:00: Bloody Beans (2013\, 80 mins) dir. Narimane Mari\n\n  \nPART II: Conversation + short films. Buy tickets HERE. \n\n16:00-17:15: Decolonize the Gaze with Orwa Nyrabia in conversation with Anne Szefer Karlsen\n17:15-18:00: Mingling + finger food with Orwa Nyrabia and Masahat Screens guests\n18:00-19:00: Litanies against fear (55 mins)\, a short films program curated and introduced by Maha Maamoun.

SUMMARY:Coping with racism: Applied drama workshop
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to “Coping with racism & building resilience – Applied drama workshop” with Mona Abdel-Fadil on Saturday 25 November\, 11:30-14:30 at Nordic Black Theater. \nHow do we cope with the various types of racist encounters that shape our lives? \nWe live in precarious times. Racist ideas may get entangled in war propaganda\, media framing\, public debates\, and our everyday lives. We may feel that some lives are considered more valuable than others\, and more worthy of either celebration\, embracing\, or even mourning. In this workshop we explore methods of improvised theatre (impro) and applied drama as tools to cope with racist experiences\, microaggressions and emotional triggers. \nSince the devastating and ongoing bombing of Palestinian civilians is a reality that affects many of us deeply – this event can provide a safe space to work through our emotions and emotional triggers\, through humor\, impro\, and theatrical techniques. \nEvent details\n\nInstruction language: English or Norwegian (depending on the group). Comments and contributions in Arabic are also welcome.\nFree event. No registration necessary\, Drop in.\nWe will start by serving a light brunch with soft drinks with Manaeesh (Syrian savory pies)\nThe workshop will be interactive so be prepared to immerse yourself in drama techniques.\n\nWhat you can expect\n\nA safe space where you can both share experiences and give one another emotional support.\nTo be introduced to ways of coping with experiences with racism\, through applied drama\, and counselling methods such as roleplay and playback.\nPractice our ability to both listen to\, understand one another’s perspectives\, and verbalize and show support for one another.\nIntroduction to humor and impro- exercises as a coping method and a means of diffusion of tension (comic relief).\n\nThe techniques and focus will be adjusted to the size of the group and what appear to be the most pressing issues at hand. \nMona Abdel-Fadil is an Egyptian-Norwegian diversity trainer\, counsellor\, researcher\, improviser\, and comedy performer. She is currently developing applied drama workshops and tools that help participants cope with: racism\, trauma\, and exclusion through humour and improvised theatre. At present\, Mona Abdel-Fadil is a researcher at The Norwegian Centre for Holocaust and Minority Studies. She is also one of the curators of the contemporary and research-based exhibition In/Visible: Everyday Racism in Norway.

SUMMARY:Ytringsrommet og krigen i Gaza
DESCRIPTION:Freedom of Expression and the War in Gaza \nThe Fritt Ord Foundation\, Masahat for Arab Culture in Exile\, and Vega Scene cordially invite the public to a conversation on Wednesday\, 29 November 2023 from 6 – 8 p.m. at Vega Scene in Hausmanns gate 30\, Oslo. \nAmund Bakke Foss\, chief advisor in the foreign news section at the newspaper VG\, will moderate a conversation with Jumana Manna\, an artist based in Berlin\, Nadim Khoury\, an associate professor at the Department of Law\, Philosophy and International Studies\, Inland Norway University of Applied Sciences\, Sarah Lookofsky\, artistic director at Kunstnernes Hus\, Jon Martin Larsen\, senior lecturer in journalism at Kristiania University College and commentator for the media website M24\, and Nikolai Melamed Kleivan\, reporting manager and journalist at the newspaper Morgenbladet. \nFollowing Hamas’ attack on 7 October 2023 and Israel’s military invasion\, we are witnessing in Gaza the bloodiest war in our time. \nThe war is having severe consequences for human rights and freedom of expression. The right to express oneself\, to protest\, show anger and frustration\, take an anti-war stance\, to distance oneself from the violence\, and show solidarity with those who suffer\, is leading to new confrontations\, persecutions and bans. \nPalestinians in Gaza\, the occupied West Bank\, Jerusalem and inside Israel are being persecuted and punished for their words by the Israeli authorities and their supporters. Jewish Israeli activists also face sanctions when they criticize Israel’s warfare. The pursuit of free speech involves arrests\, interrogations\, and warnings. Social media\, including past posts\, are monitored for signs that people are supporting the Palestinian side. In recent weeks\, many Palestinian citizens in Israel have been suspended from universities and fired from their jobs. \nIn Germany and France\, pro-Palestinian demonstrations and shows of solidarity have been met with bans\, arrests and violence. Accusations of anti-Semitism against Palestinian cultural workers\, artists and academics have resulted in smear campaigns\, the cancellation of exhibitions\, and terminations of employment in several European cities. At the same time\, there are reports of an increasing number of anti-Semitic incidents in Europe\, the USA and Norway. The discursive climate of communication in the USA is also being strongly influenced by the war. \nReporting on the war in Gaza has proven to be challenging and dangerous due to the total lack of safe places to work. Roughly 40 journalists and media workers have been killed\, and the lack of physical access to the Gaza Strip and the war zone creates fertile ground for propaganda from both parties. A large generation of young people is discovering the Israeli-Palestinian conflict for the first time through social media images and videos. When they turn their attention to the edited media\, they find a dissonance between editor-led mainstream media and social media. \nIn this conversation\, we will discuss the challenges facing mainstream media; what it is like to be an Arab\, Muslim and Jew\, living through this war; anti-Semitism; cancellations; censorship and self-censorship in institutions; as well the double standards reflected in foreign policy – in Norway and internationally. \nThe conversation will also feature certain individuals and organizations invites to give short interventions during the event\, including Bergdis Joelsdottir\, director of Policy at Amnesty International Norway\, who is currently mapping the restrictions on freedom of expression in Europe as well as tech giants’ restrictions in light of the war. \nThe event will conclude with a dialogue with the audience\, followed by soup and open discussion until 9 p.m. \nRegister to the event

For all of those\, particularly for the children of Gaza\, we dedicate this evening of grief\, hope\, and even joy. We grieve the beautiful souls of those we’ve lost\, and we hope for justice\, for freedom\, for dignity\, for real peace for those who are still surviving\, still seeking safety\, and still dreaming despite the overwhelming\, unspeakable horror. My voice is but an echo of yours.” \nNai Barghouti is an award-winning Palestinian singer\, composer and flutist.

SUMMARY:Palestinian Hospitality
DESCRIPTION:Norsk\n		\n				\n				English\n		 \nPalestinian Hospitality er en kombinert aktivistisk intervention\, delegert performance og audioguide som henter inspirasjon fra utstillinga Palestinske kunstnere arrangert av The Plastic Arts Section P.L.O og Kunstnernes Hus i 1981. Her ble 16 palestinske kunstnere stilt ut\, blant andre Samia Halaby\, Mona Saudi og Mustafa Al-Hallajt. I intervjuer trekker de palestinske kunstnere fram hvor viktig samholdet med norske kunstnere var i prosessen med utstillinga. Halaby ønsket etter endt opphold å donere arbeidene sine til den norske arbeiderklassen som takk\, mens Saudi tok kontakt med FN for å forære en skulptur.* \nTittelen Palestinian Hospitality springer ut av et intervju med Halaby gjort i 2024 på vegne av Fiksdal og Siljeholm. Halaby\, som bor og arbeider i USA\, fikk nylig kansellert en soloutstilling ved Indiana University\, en utstilling som skulle ha vært 87-åringens første retrospektiv i USA: “Clearly the intent is to suppress Palestinian voices at this very time.”** I kontekst av Masahat 2024 får publikum møte Samia Halaby i kunsten\, politikkens og revolusjonens tjeneste. \n  \n*Kilde: Kunstnernes Hus arkiv på Nasjonalmuseet**Samia Halaby til Hyperallergic\, 11.1.24 \nPalestinian Hospitality is a combined intervention\, delegated performance and audio guide that draws inspiration from the exhibition Palestinian Artists organized by The Plastic Arts Section P.L.O and Kunstnernes Hus\, Oslo\, in 1981. Here 16 Palestinian artists were exhibited\, among others Samia Halaby\, Mona Saudi and Mustafa Al -Hallaj.

SUMMARY:Independent Media in Authoritarian Setting
DESCRIPTION:Since the advent of the Arab Spring\, mainstream media in Egypt and the Arab world has become an organ for state power to control public access to news\, often spreading propaganda and misinformation but also functioning as a safety valve for public disgruntlement. Alternative media like Mada Masr and others have been at the forefront of challenging state propaganda and the increasing irrelevance of mainstream media as a trustworthy source of news. As a result\, the state has cracked down on journalists through constant harassment and imprisonment of journalists to spread an atmosphere of fear around the work of a free press. \nIn this conversation with publisher of Mada Masr\, Lina Atallah\, and media expert and professor of Arabic Jacob Høigilt\, we will learn more about the current conditions of the Egyptian press\, the challenges that face journalists committed to the truth.

SUMMARY:Grief and Activism: How not to Burn Out
DESCRIPTION:How do we support ourselves and each other in pain and loss\, in ways that minimize our risk of drowning in it and taking it out on each other? I want to offer a 90-minute session for humble exploration of how we can live and work kindly and creatively with our grief\, fear\, anger and feelings of helplessness and guilt. The session is an experimental combination of workshop and ceremony structured around 5 of my songs\, with suggestions for individual inquiries and mutual sharing in the spaces between them. \nLet’s co-create a space with room to listen and reflect\, feel and contain\, flow and ground. Bring something to write with and on\, your grieving\, your wisdom and your questions and be welcome.

SUMMARY:Harnessing SWANA Diaspora Power
DESCRIPTION:In this pivotal discussion\, we will dive deep into how our diaspora communities can strategically leverage their power\, not only to advance the cause of Palestinian liberation but to lay the foundation for a stronger\, freer region for all our peoples. Throughout history\, diaspora communities have been at the forefront of transformative liberation movements. With the rise of a new generation of activists and voices\, now is the time to hone our strategies\, sharpen our tactics\, and organize with purpose to build real\, enduring power. \nWhat is happening in Palestine puts us at the brink of igniting a wider movement that has the potential to reshape the future of the entire region. This isn’t just about solidarity; it’s about mobilizing our collective strength to dismantle the systems of oppression that hold us back and to chart a new course toward freedom and justice. \nJoin us for this essential conversation\, where we will tap into the immense potential of the Arab and SWANA diaspora community in Norway. Together\, we will share insights\, engage in strategic thinking\, and undergo training that will empower us to reclaim our power\, break the chains of oppression\, and build a brighter\, liberated future for all our peoples. \nWhat is happening in Palestine puts us at the brink of igniting a wider movement that has the potential to reshape the future of the entire region.

SUMMARY:Artists and Liberation
DESCRIPTION:The genocide in Gaza has exposed the complicity of our cultural and academic institutions in zionism and related colonial ideologies of extermination\, extraction and unlawful accumulation of wealth. Artists have contributed to a growing vanguard  global movement in solidarity for Palestine and too many have paid the price for their principled stance against oppression. Nonetheless\, artists and cultural producers continue to use their voices as well as their creative commitments to challenge cultural institutions and expose their complicity. \nIn this conversation with Farah Azrak and Hamed Sinno\, moderated by Rana Issa\, we will discuss the responsibility and necessity of art in a world descending towards authoritarianism\, the difficulties of meaning making in times of genocide\, and the problematics of yoking politics to art. \n\nThis event is in collaboration with Kunstnerforbundet. \n\nPlease note that Atelier Kunstnerforbundet Loft is on the 4th floor\, and regrettably not accessible for people with limited mobility. A long-term rehabilitation of the building is in process. Please get in touch if you have questions about accessibility.

SUMMARY:The BDS movement
DESCRIPTION:Strategies of resistance – the legacy and outlook of the BDS movement\nHow can we work together to push our institutions to take a solid stance against Israel’s occupation? Masahat invites to a talk and panel discussion of Boycott\, Divestment\, Sanctions (BDS) as a tool of resistance in arts and academia. \nThe BDS movement has lately gained momentum worldwide but has also faced harsh backlash. Cultural and academic institutions serve as a backbone of Israel’s strategy of normalizing occupation. By partnering with and maintaining relationships with these institutions\, Western organizations and donors become complicit in the continuous injustices committed against the Palestinian people by the Israeli state. \nPROGRAM \n\n10:00-10:15 Serving of light breakfast\n10:15-10:45 Talk by Layal Ftouni\n10:45-11:30 Panel discussion and Q&A\n11:30-12:00 Informal discussion and mingling\n\nIn her talk\, Dr. Layal Ftouni (Assistant Professor of Gender Studies and Critical Theory\, Utrecht University) will discuss the question of Palestine as the limit case of academic freedom and the struggle for justice that academic institutions claim to defend . Drawing on her extensive experience in BDS activism in the Netherlands and other academic contexts\, Ftouni will address the significance of boycott and divestment as strategies of resistance\, and in the context of debates on academic freedom\, decolonization\, and neoliberalism. Moreover\, she will reflect on the legacies of the BDS movement drawing parallels to the South African boycott movement. \nFollowing the talk\, a panel of invited academics and cultural workers who have been actively involved in pushing their institutions to take a stance against Israel to reflect on their experiences and the way forward: \n–Ayman Alazraq (filmmaker\, photographer\, and mixed-media artist)\n–Jassem el Hindi (Artist and choreographer)\n–Hege Hermansen (Professor of Education\, Oslo Metropolitan University) Moderators:\n–Nora Milch (PhD researcher\, University of Oslo)\n–Sarah Kazmi (Interdisciplinary artist and a writer)

SUMMARY:From Nakba to Liberation
DESCRIPTION:As the world watches in horror at the unfolding genocide in Gaza—where over 40\,000 lives have been brutally taken—the Palestinian people\, along with millions of allies who champion freedom\, justice\, and dignity\, are at a pivotal crossroads. The urgency to shift from despair to a focused\, strategic movement for liberation has never been greater. \nBut how do we turn this urgency into reality? Can liberation be more than a distant dream? What shape could it take\, and what tangible steps can we\, as a global community\, take to achieve it? \nJoin us for a keynote that delves deep into these questions\, drawing from extensive studies of successful liberation movements throughout history. Through a powerful blend of historical insights and a keen analysis of the current ground realities in Palestine\, this session will illuminate the path forward for the global movement striving to end the genocide and achieve true liberation. \nBe part of this crucial conversation—one that has the potential to shape the future of a people and a movement.

SUMMARY:Vigil for Palestine
DESCRIPTION:We are approaching one year of a perpetrated genocide in Gaza with no immediate ceasefire in sight and with mounting threats that a regional war would break out. We are angry and resentful of our impotent politicians and institutions who have so far not stopped the sale of arms to the Zionist entity or took any concrete measure to divest from the Israeli settler regime\, which we view as complicity with genocide and with any escalations into a regional war taking place. We invite activists and Palestine supporters to join us in a nightly vigil to grieve our Palestinian martyrs\, the incarceration and torture of Palestinian children\, women and men\, and the massive destruction and erasure of Palestinian lives\, ecologies and culture. This protest vigil is for us to share our anger and grief in front of the Parliament. This vigil will showcase solidarity with Palestine through artistic commissioned works by Norwegian\, Arab and Palestinian cultural practitioners. \nProgram\n\nOpening address: Kari Veiteberg\, Bishop of Oslo\nPolitical address: Line Khateeb\, Leder av Palestina Komitee\nMoment of Silence\nScreening on Stortingets wall of Videos for Palestine by Video Tract for Palestine\nCollective\, Mira Adoumie\, Islam Shabana\nPoetry Readings by Bendik Vada\, Ninthu Paramalingam\, Mahmud Beshtawy\nCarnivalesque Performance “Songs of Anemone” by Farah Azrak.\n\n  \nThis vigil is a collaboration between Palkom\, Aksjonsgruppa for Palestina and Masahat. The artistic program is made possible through a generous grant from KORO.

SUMMARY:Masahat Community Dinner: Bread\, Dignity\, and Social Justice
DESCRIPTION:Bli med på Masahat community dinner der vi feirer fellesskapet med fire-retters middag\, poesi\, musikk og historiefortelling på Himmelsalen på BLÅ. \nMatsikkerhet er ofte en av hovedårsakene til at folk tar til gatene i protest over hele verden. Historisk sett har mat ofte blitt brukt av kolonimakter som et verktøy for undertrykkelse ved å tvinge samfunn i kne gjennom sult og kalorikontroll. På den andre siden har aktivister over hele verden brukt mat til å reparere samfunnsbånd gjennom å organisere gatekjøkken og matdistribusjon til massene i revolusjonære perioder. I denne samfunnsbyggende handlingen\, som setter fokus på matens rolle i masse­mobilisering\, vil deltakerne få smake og lære om historien til visse retter og de kreative måtene mat har blitt brukt som en form for protest på. \nVåre talentfulle og politisk motiverte kokker (Chef: Thuraya al-Kury\, Sous Chef: Andreas Leibe Delsett) vil tilberede en fire-retters middagsmeny som feirer fellesskapets matlagings- og spisemåter ved å gjenskape retter som har blitt ikoniske og viktige for samfunn i opprør. \nMiddagen vil også inneholde et kulturprogram med musikk\, poesi og fortellinger: \n\nDet blir diktopplesning og boksignering av Tunga mi protesterer mot døden: Palestinsk dikt av Bendik Vada.\nVi får også musikkopptreden med U- 3 som skal spille sørafrikanske sjangerbrytende rytmer med dyp forpliktelse til samfunnsreparasjon.\nMC og historieforteller Mona Abdel-Fadil\n\nDet blir servert 4 retter av kokk Thuraya al-Kury og sous-kokk Andreas Leibe Delsett

SUMMARY:Klubbkveld med Safira + DJ Refel & VATHAN / BLÅ
DESCRIPTION:Masahatfestivalen 2024 inviterer til klubbkveld på BLÅ! 20. september har vi tre dyktige DJ-er som skal sørge for god stemning og liv på dansegulvet med musikk fra forskjellige hjørner i verden. \nHeadliner for kvelden er Safira\, som har vært en drivkraft på den norske DJ-scenen og har gjort seg bemerket ved å samle folk gjennom musikk. Hennes musikalske stil varierer fra dype\, mørke og atmosfæriske toner til leken og psykedelisk techno. Safiras visjon om samhold fortsetter med utviklingen av hennes egne kulturelle bevegelse og eventkonseptet Extra Delicious. Dette konseptet har de siste fem årene vært med på å skape en plattform hvor artister i Norge kan opptre\, nettverke og utvikle talentene sine sammen. DJ Safira har dratt på flere turneer på forskjellige kontinenter\, og tar alltid med seg driv og inspirasjon når hun kommer tilbake. \n  \nUnder kvelden får vi også høre fra de talentfulle DJ-ene Refel og VATHAN. \nDJ Refel er en lokal Oslo-DJ med røtter fra Irak. DJ Refel har siden 2019 spilt på de største klubbene i Oslo\, der hun har hatt en rykende lidenskap for å spille eksperimentelle lyder og musikkstiler fra sør for ekvator\, eller fra diasporaen som kommer fra det territoriet. \nVATHAN er født og oppvokst i Oslo\, og tar inspirasjon fra sine tamilske røtter sammen med en lidenskap for elektronisk musikk. Resultatet av det blir en unik blanding av sørasiatiske elementer\, house og techno. Settene hans går fra lekne og lette begynnelser til mørke og svette finaler\, som holder publikum energiske og rytmen groovy. Bli med på en uforglemmelig kveld\, og kjøp billettene dine NÅ!
