About Me

YO! THANKS FOR VISITING, BUT PLEASE USE OUR YALLA_ONLINE MYSPACE INSTEAD OF THIS ONE! TA, TODAH, SHUKRAN!
www.myspace.com/yalla_online
Hello, Salaam, Shalom!
Thanks for checking us out. We're a diverse bunch of folks based in london, most of us in some way directly linked to that well-known region called the Middle East.
Our group is called YALLA!, and we're all about cultural exchange.
We're trying to promote and better represent positive images of, and relationships between, people of Jewish, Muslim, and Middle-Eastern backgrounds.
We're putting on social, cultural and artistic events and workshops where people can get together and check out what we're really like as individuals.
We're an independent initiative, and redefining the public image of who we are as people of the Middle East is really important to us.
Keep an eye on our myspace, or our website: www.yalla-online.org, for a list of events we're running.
If you want to get involved, drop us a line either here, or to [email protected]. Cheers!
