Description


The first-ever biography of Mozhdah Jamalzadah: refugee, pop singer, and champion of womens 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 womens rights. Voice of Rebellion charts her incredible journey, including arriving in Canada as a child refugee, setting her fathers protest poem to music (and making it a #1 hit), performing that song for Michelle and Barack Obama, and, finally, being invited to host her own show in Afghanistan. The Mozhdah Show earned her the nickname The Oprah of Afghanistan and tackled taboo subjects like divorce and domestic violence for the first time in the countrys history. But even as her words resonated with women and families, Mozhdah received angry death threatssome of them seriousand was eventually advised to return to Canada.

Traversing Central Asia and North America, Voice of Rebellion profiles a devoted singer and activist who continues to fight for change, even from afar.
