Summary:
The first-ever biography of Mozhdah Jamalzadah: refugee, pop singer, and champion of women’s rights
Many have tried to silence her, but Mozhdah Jamalzadah remains the most powerful female voice of her generation in Afghanistan, boldly speaking out about women’s rights. Voice of Rebellion charts her incredible trip, including arriving in Canada as a kid refugee, placing her father’s protest poem to music (and rendering it a #1 strike), executing that tune for Michelle and Barack Obama, and, finally, being invited to host her own show in Afghanistan. The Mozhdah Display gained her the nickname “The Oprah of Afghanistan” and tackled taboo subjects like divorce and local violence for the very first time in the country’s background. But even as her words resonated with females and family members, Mozhdah received angry death threats-some of these serious-and was ultimately advised to return to Canada.
Traversing Central Asia and North America, Tone of voice of Rebellion profiles a dedicated singer and activist who continues to fight for change, even from afar.
