This is the last episode to a four episode short series on this great singer/artist.  How are we still connected to Um Kalthoum?   In this final one, I explore the intricate political canvas that Um Kalthoum was part of, during Egypt's 1960's. She sang nationalist songs, not just for Egypt but for Palestine as well.  How can we relate to these nationalistic and politically charged songs now a days when so much has changed.   Songs, Links and References Used:  Salou Qalbi https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hjuo...
