This tri-lingual greeting is the way most people say hello in Lebanon where Arabic, French and English are spoken daily. This show will thus showcase music in all 3 languages.
THIS WEEK (Season 2 Episode 3): This episode includes an exclusive interview with Lebanese writer Raafat Majzoub who discusses his controversial book "Fetish Systems."
The program premiered on March 1, 2011 and is hosted by Dr. Ramzi Salti of the African and Middle Eastern (AME) Languages and Literatures Program at Stanford University.
