Khaira Arby: “Nightingale of Mali”
I recently profiled renowned Malian musician Khaira Arby for Muslimah Media Watch. I looked at several articles and interviews with her in my overview, from a wide variety of sources. One of my favorite quotes from her came from an interview with Rockpaperscissors:
I want to teach the daughters of the world, teach them to think, to value themselves, to sing.
