A Different Way – The Jerusalem Youth Chorus: Palestinian and Israeli young singers from the Jerusalem Youth Chorus teamed up with GRAMMY- and Emmy-winning artists to write a powerful anthem of non-violence in times of war, and a call to action to choose a shared future over destruction.
Jerusalem Youth Chorus
Empowering youth from East and West Jerusalem
We are the Jerusalem Youth Chorus: Palestinians and Israelis raising our voices to push back against the violence surrounding us—to reject war, occupation, and terror, and instead sing out for peace, justice, inclusion, and equality. We don’t all share the same opinions—and have hard conversations about them every week—but we do share the same future, no matter what the politicians say. In JYC we have a rare chance to truly hear each other, and that’s what makes the chorus a home for all of us. Every kid deserves to grow up with that same safety and dignity. We know we don’t have the power to single-handedly stop war, but we also know that the reason war continues is because people think there is no alternative. We are the alternative.
