Caption
Khaira Arby, one of Mali's most well-known musicians, has not returned to her home in Timbuktu for seven months. Doing so could mean prison time, or having her tongue cut by the radical Islamists who now rule northern Mali. Hundreds of musicians have fled south to Bamako and other towns, as well as to neighboring countries, driven out by the hardliners who have decreed any form of music – save those that accompany Koranic verses -- as against their religion. The exiles describe an emasculation of their rich culture beyond anything they ever imagined, where playing music translates into lashes with whips, beatings, destruction of MP3 and cassette players, even prison time.
