An improvised duet with Grammy Award-winning native flute player Mary Youngblood and myself on oud at DAYS OF SOLIDARITY: CELEBRATING ARMENIAN AND NATIVE AMERICAN SURVIVAL, an event with two objectives: 1) build bridges between Indigenous Americans and Armenians as two groups who have preserved and advanced their ancient cultures despite a common history of genocide, and 2) raise funds for the Lakota People’s Law Project, a legal organization dedicated to defending those whose rights were violated by the Dakota Access Oil Pipeline.
