Gedenk: "Adon Olam Ad Matai?"

Hat Tip: Concerned UCI Student

Israeli rapper Subliminal (Kobi Shimoni) and Grammy Award winning violinist Miri Ben-Ari release a haunting version of Adon Olam.



They are releasing this as part of the Gedenk (Remember) Movement. According to the website, Gedenk promotes education in today's youth through art and education:
Gedenk is a word that means “remember” in Yiddish, a language that died along with the six million Jews that perished in the Holocaust. Gedenk is a movement established in 2006 as a humanitarian campaign that promotes youth education about anti-Semitism and the Jewish Holocaust. Gedenk will use commercial outlets, i.e. music, dance, billboards and celebrities, to communicate its message and make the Jewish Holocaust relevant to today’s youth. Those that do not speak up are as guilty as the criminals themselves!

Thanks for putting the song on the site, I sent to most of my friends. I think its great that Subliminal put it together, shows true character. IDF731

Concerned UCI Student: Sure. :)

IDF731: Not a problem. I am glad you went ahead and forwarded it to friends. I think Subliminal is incredible. His lyrics are so much more poignant and applicable to life than other performers in his genre. He is a true Zionist.
