Nasreen Qadri is an Israeli Arab singer who became famous when she won a TV singing competition in 2014.
Qadri has been named to sing in both Israel's Remembrance Day and Independence Day ceremonies.
She says she is part of this country and represents it therefore it's an honor for her to sing at those ceremonies and that it gives her a sense of belonging. She hopes this will convey a message of peace and brotherhood and against racism and violence.
She is scheduled to tour the US with Radiohead together with another Israeli band, Dudu Tassa and the Kuwaitis, this summer.
