Lupe Fiasco holding a Palestinian flag throughout his powerful performance of Words I Never Said in front of millions in the 6th Annual BET Hip Hop Awards warms my heart. Sami Kishawi @ Sixteen Minutes to Palestine says of Lupe’s nationally televised performance :
Watch this stunning performance and smile. The Palestinian cause is a people’s movement that will continue to grow in popularity. We are mainstream and we will stay that way.
I’m smiling and Sami’s right.
Word.
damn right!

Outstanding Annie!!!! Great find!!!!! This is great PR!!
I’ve never heard of Lupe Fiasco, but if millions have then this performance is a Good Thing.
Big shout out to Lupe!!! He is an incredible artist and incredible human being. Hip hop has an immeasurable amount of influence on our society today and touches the lives of millions Americans especially the young. The hip hop community has always supported the Palestinian cause and this sort of mainstream support from such a powerful sector of our society is tremendously helpful and inspiring.
