I will research different ways in which music is used as an alternative dialogue in Jerusalem. In the video about the Heartbeat foundation, I found it quite moving how the youth interviewed where quite optimistic about the future of peace. I believe this optimism arise from the musical outlet an organization such as Heartbeat provides to the youth of Jerusalem. One teenager said music was an international language which enabled them to see past cleavages which arise from defining identity in an ethnic and national context.
I will use a medium such as blogger or prezi to provide a learner with the ability to hear the music coming out of Jerusalem along with articles, interviews, and video clips which help to give a 360 degree view of the music emerging and its influence on the conflicted region.
