When Grammy-winning musician Rhiannon Giddens begins playing “Old Corn Liquor,” a traditional Black American folk tune, acclaimed Chinese pipa virtuoso Wu Man recognizes similarities to Chinese pentatonic music and spontaneously joins in. The joy on their faces says it all.

You keep using the collective “we”? The poem isn’t controversial opinions anre allowed in a democratic polity and institution. The english royals have always generated their own controversy/scandals not least because his son carries a colonial title of ownership on our very identity. Please be real.

Question: Does Israel have a right to exist? Correct answer: Your question is racist because it centres the coloniser rather than its victims. It's not Israel whose land is being stolen. It's not Israelis who live under brutal occupation. Ask me about Palestine's right to exist.
