Music festival brings Jews and Muslims together
Tue, 11/03/2009 - 16:55 — Gihane AskarA music festival bringing Jews and Muslims artists together in Essaouira, Morocco just ended its 6th round this weekend.
The Andalousies Atlantiques festival of Judeo-Arab music is not only a tribute to the rich past of the town but a revival of its cultural and religious mix of Jews and Muslims.
The audience was also a mix of Jewish and Muslim people, which shows that art can bring the most unlikely people together. Now, if we just can have more of such events throughout the world...
