CONCERT FOR CHELSEA MANNING in ISRAEL - 17 May 2017

   The concert will take place in the evening of the 17th of May in the city of Be'er Sheva. It's only 3 miles from the big prison complex where some of the Palestinian prisoners are on hunger strike for more than 3 weeks. And it is few miles from Hatzerim Airforce base, the nearest one to Gaza, the biggest open air prison in the world. And also where I myself was a soldier before I refused in 2003.

   I will sing songs from my album "Numu Numu" and talk about disobedience conscientious objection and resistance to the occupation.

And of course, it will all be dedicated to the release of Chelsea Manning.
 

Yonatan Shapira, refusenik
