Episode 5: Assembly, Part 6: Nidal Ka’bi, performer and choreographer
Episode 5
Thursday, 25 January, 2024

Last year, AFSC brought together artists, activists, and cultural practitioners from the Middle East and North Africa in Amman, Jordan. They shared their knowledge and experiences in using art for social change—and strategized ways to support each other in working for peace and justice. Our limited podcast series, “Assembly,” features the stories and perspectives of some of our participants. In this episode, we hear from Nidal Ka'bi, a performer, choreographer, and executive director of the Palestinian Performing Arts Network. He talks about how the performing arts serve as a platform for speaking out for Palestinian rights and other urgent issues.
