Book review of Palestinian Music in Exile: Voices of Resistance by Louis Brehony

Abstract: 
-

Based on fieldwork conducted between 2015 and 2021, Brehony began his research in Palestine and then moved to Europe, where half of the contributing musicians now live. More than a standard textbook on music history, his motivation reflects "revolutionary solidarity and advocacy," along with love for the music itself. From his position as "involved supporter" of "exploited and oppressed masses" around the world, Brehony attempts to fit the mold of "organic intellectual" described by Ramzy Baroud in These Chains Will Be Broken: Palestinian Stories of Struggle and Defiance in Israeli Prisons (2020).
