It can feel a bi t hopeless\; watching the news while being so far away\, trying to imagine the scope and magnitude of the problem\, coming to grips with the long-te rm impacts for people\, property\, flora\, fauna.We don?t want to just wat ch anymore. We want to help.We're too far away to volunteer with the fire service\, or rescue wildlife\, or offer homes to displaced evacuees. What we can do is what we do best: singing together\, standing in solidarity wi th one another\, spreading the hope that is built on communities of people with big hearts.Join your voice and your wallet with ours\, at a special ok!choir Pop Up Night supporting those impacted by the Australian bushfire s.ok!choir Pop Up nights are open for anyone to attend - no choir or singi ng experience is necessary. We learn a whole song in one night and finish with a tiny performance for the camera. As well as singing\, you'll get to hear stories from Australians living in Berlin\, about what's going on ba ck home\, and about their experiences and connections with the Australian landscape.ok!choir director &\; Aussie Claire Coleman will teach us ?Be ds Are Burning? by Australia?s own Midnight Oil in 3 part harmonies. While the song's key question 'how can we sleep while our beds are burning?' is pertinent to global governmental inaction on climate change\, it was orig inally composed to acknowledge white Australia's history of marginalising and exploiting Indigenous Australians and their land. Since land exploitat ion contributes to climate change around the world\, and marginalised comm unities are often disproportionately affected by environmental catastrophe \, the song's relevance to this moment is multifaceted. It's a song that h as space for sadness\, and anger\, but it also celebrates Australian lands capes and calls with hope and determination for change.100% of the proceed s of this Pop Up will be donated to firefighting and bushfire relief servi ces\, and distributed among organisations working in the hardest hit areas of the east coast\; the Queensland Rural Fire Service\, the Victorian Bus hfire Appeal\, and WIRES\, a NSW based wildlife rescue organisation.The ev ent will take place at wonderful Cassiopeia on RAW Gelände. Cassiopeia will also donate their proceeds made with every sold drink. Amazing!Come by\, s ing with us\, have a drink\, donate what you can\, reach your arms out acr oss the oceans.------Find out more about the organisations that we would l ike support:https://www.ruralfire.qld.gov.au/About/Pages/Donations.aspxhtt ps://www.vic.gov.au/bushfireappealhttps://www.wires.org.au/donate/emergenc y-fund\n\nViel Spass wünscht Gratis-in-Berlin\n\nLink zum Tip: \nZu den Gratis- in-Berlin Angeboten: http://www.gratis-in-berlin.de\n DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20200120 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20200121 SUMMARY:Special ok!choir Pop Up: Australian Bushfire Fundraiser END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
