Stubborn Folk

For those of you who know this great Diva : Fairouz,


You surely know her B7ebbak ya lebnan. In it, she sings the rebirth of Lebanon, after the war, a lebanon of dignity and stubborn folk.

Several years later, her son, Ziad,


wrote and directed a play, Bekhsous l Karameh wel Sha3b l 3anid (Of Dignity and Stubborn Folk) using his mother's song and drawing a vision of Lebanon. (see plot here).

So wat is this blog all about?
In this blog you will rarely read about myself. You will certainly read about lebanese politics and lebanese people, Of Dignity and Stubborn Folk.
