WE WILL NOT GO DOWN (Song for Gaza)
(Composed by Michael Heart)
Copyright 2009
A blinding flash of white light
Lit up the sky over Gaza tonight
People running for cover
Not knowing whether they’re dead or alive
They came with their tanks and their planes
With ravaging fiery flames
And nothing remains
Just a voice rising up in the smoky haze
We will not go down
In the night, without a fight
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
But our spirit will never die
We will not go down
In Gaza tonight
Women and children alike
Murdered and massacred night after night
While the so-called leaders of countries afar
Debated on who’s wrong or right
But their powerless words were in vain
And the bombs fell down like acid rain
But through the tears and the blood and the pain
You can still hear that voice through the smoky haze
We will not go down
In the night, without a fight
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
But our spirit will never die
We will not go down
In Gaza tonight

Prince Among Slaves, True Story of A Muslim Slave on PBS Feb 4th February 2, 2008
Posted by hamiltonmuslims in Arts & Literature, Message, News, Video, muslim.1 comment so far
Prince Among Slaves, a new documentary by Unity Productions Foundation, will air nationwide on PBS on Monday, February 4, 2008, at 10 PM (check local listings at www.pbs.org).
1788. The slave ship Africa set sail from the Gambia River, its hold laden with a profitable but highly perishable cargo– hundreds of men, women and children bound in chains—headed for American shores. Eight months later, a handful of survivors found themselves for sale in Natchez, Mississippi. On the slave auction block, one of them, a 26-years-old male named Abdul Rahman Ibrahima is an African Prince.

I am a Muslim Girl Poem October 15, 2007
Posted by hamiltonmuslims in Arts & Literature, Youth, muslim, muslim canada.2 comments
I am a Muslim Girl
I am a Muslim Girl
You look at me like I’m a pest
Just because of the way I’ve dressed
I am a Muslim Girl
I like the way I’ve dressed
And it shouldn’t mean
I’m different from the rest
I am a Muslim Girl
You judge me from the clothing outside
Without looking at me deep inside
I am a Muslim Girl
I might look a little shy
But I really don’t know why
Because I walk with dignity
And when I talk I do not lie
I am a Muslim Girl
Not all of me you’ll see
But that’s the choice I made freely
I am a Muslim Girl
While you talk to me
You don’t need to slow down
Because I can speak English
Et un petit peu de francais aussi
And four more languages that you might not recognize
I am a Muslim Girl
I’m a girl just like you and I also go to school
So don’t refuse me from being your friend
Without actually knowing me for who I am
I am a Muslim Girl
