Less than a month ago, I was in conversation with Obeidullah Gierdien. While the name may ring a bell for many, for those who don’t know who Obeidullah is, he is the brains behind the Palestinian murals that are beautifully decorating the walls of Bokaap homes.
Since the first conversation we had to now, Bokaap is no longer just known for the bright colorful houses in Wale Street, but for a community that proudly stands with Palestine. Obeidullah Gierdien joins us now to give us an update on their work.
