Bring Dammi Falastini back! أنا دمي فلسطيني

The Issue

 

On May 21, Spotify and Apply music have removed the famous Palestinian song by Mohamed Assaf "My blood is Palestinian "أنا دمي فلسطيني". The removal of this song came after a petition organised by pro-Zionist We Believe in Israel (WBII) and the Board of Deputies garnered nearly 4,000 signatures claiming his antisemítico tropes and underlying messages. 

 


The song's translation is as follows:

(Chorus) Keeping my oath, following my religion
You will find me on my land
I belong to my people, I sacrifice my soul for them
My blood is Palestinian, Palestinian, Palestinian
My blood is Palestinian
 
We stood for you, our homeland
With our pride and Arabisim
Al-Quds land called us
(As) The sound of my mother calling me
Palestinian, Palestinian
My blood is Palestinian
 
Chorus 
 
O mother don't worry
Your homeland is a fortified castle
Which I sacrifice my soul for
And my blood, and my veins
 
Chorus
 
I'm Palestinian, a son of a free family
I'm brave and my head is always up
I'm keeping my oath to you my homeland
And I have never bowed to anyone
Palestinian, Palestinian
My blood is Palestinian

In an interview with Mohammed, he demonstrated that the Palestinian people’s resistance against the occupying force is ever so relevant as media representing their identity is being stripped from platforms. His song of Palestinian existence represents each and every Palestinian in their struggle again colonialism and it's crucial that we don't allow right-wing extremists to suppress activism efforts. 

Sign this petition if you stand against colonialism. 
Sign this petition if people deserve freedom of identities. 
Better yet, sign this petition if you agree that such extremists shouldn't be allowed to control liberation.
