Hind's Hall - Tumblr Posts
CEASEFIRE NOW.
I apologize for calling Macklemore cringe
Silly meme to get your attention ⬆️
For those who don’t know, Macklemore made a song called Hind’s Hall and once it’s on streaming, all the proceeds will go to the UNRWA!! Aka UN Agency for Palestine Refugees.
So yes, I’m asking you to stream Macklemore. Not only is it for a good cause, but it shows the music industry where we stand. Also if you are a stan, now is the time to put all your stan streaming powers to work!
There is of course lots of other ways to help! I just wanted to highlight this one, because it’s a way you can raise money for free, which I think is important.
Pro-Palestine music as protest has been a thing for ages but nothing prepared me for "Hind's Hall" by Macklemore, which has both some great lyrics, some great commentary on protests at Columbia, and for which ALL PROCEEDS GO TO UNRWA.
You don't gotta like his music, but damn. Gotta admit Macklemore has been putting his money where his mouth is for months on this issue.
You can donate directly to UNRWA on their website.
It's not yet on streaming platforms but I heard a snippet in Democracy Now, and he posted part of it to Twitter/X.
I will disclaim that I disagree with the "not voting for Biden" thing, due to the fact that I personally believe that the American political system forces a Lesser Evil approach. I understand the intent, but I do disagree on a personal and political level.
