: While tending the inspiring new Global Voices harvest of blogs around the world, Rebecca MacKinnon comes across something remarkable that seems to be legit: An all-girl Afghan band called the Burka Band. Listen to their single, Burka Blue.

It wasnít the Peacemaker nor the Trident that brought down the Soviet Union, it was Coca Cola and Leviís. Will Rock ëní Roll topple the mullahs? Could be.
Better yet, a girl band.
