Rebel music : race, empire, and the new Muslim youth culture / Hisham D. Aidi. by Aidi, Hisham, author. New York : Pantheon Books, c2014. Subjects Muslim youth -- Western countries -- Social conditions.   Music and youth -- Western countries.   Protest movements -- Western countries. ISBN:  9780375424908 (hbk.) : 0375424903 (hbk.) Description:  xxx, 398 pages ; 25 cm Edition:  First edition. Requests:  0 Summary:  "In this timely, revelatory study, Hisham Aidi examines the secular and religious movements that have recently emerged among Muslim youth in the West as a means of protest against the policies of the "War on Terror." He interviews artists and activists, and reports from music festivals and concerts. He explains how certain kinds of music--particularly hip hop, but also Jazz, gnawa, Andalusian, Judeo-Arabic, Latin and others--have come to represent a heightened racial identity and a Muslim consciousness that criss-crosses the globe. He describes how western governments--particularly the U.S. and England--use music in an attempt to deradicalize Muslim youth abroad. And he explores the increasing radicalization among Muslim youth in an historical context: looking back to the Civil Rights movement and to the words of Malcolm X which have inspired many American Muslims. In all, Aidi has written a riveting, eye-opening portrait of a growing, potentially radical segment of the global youth culture"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 305.23508 Ai Checked In Add Copy to MyList
