United in Song: A Celebration of International Solidarity
Join in for a different kind of Labor Day celebration at a songfest featuring David Rovics, America's foremost anti-imperialist singer/songwriter; Honduran native Maria Isolina, singing her own compositions as well as those of Chilean martyr Victor Jara; The Iron Sheik, blending American hip hop with Arabic strains in the cause of Palestine; and native Washingtonian Luci Murphy, known both for her beautiful voice and her activism in the cause of peace and justice.
United in Song is free and will be held at Lincoln Park (East Capitol at 12th Street; Eastern Market Metro), on Monday, Sept. 6, from 4 to 7 p.m. For more information, call 703/481-5711.
