Document Summary
Daughter of the imam of a local mosque, she began her career singing religious songs. Sang love songs in a modern musical style as well as songs based on historically poetic and musical practices. Also considered a good singer because she could recite the quran. From dictionary: jews living outside israel. The dispersion of the jews beyond israel: the dispersion of any people from their original homeland: the diaspora of boat people from asia. Important: an individual person moving house does not make a diaspora. The diaspora is always the larger group or the act of mass dispersal. Also, this can extend to the next generation(s). Noteworthy diasporic groups: mexican immigrants to the us, turkish (especially in germany), indian and pakistani diasporas (especially in the uk), african slaves brought to the new world. Factors that might lead to refugee status (religious or racial oppression).
