JANUARY 2012 ISSUE:
CELEBRATING FUSION & ARAB INFLUENCES
HAPPY NEW YEAR’S 2012 READERS!
This month we’ve got great story pieces celebrating the “fusion” of Arab Culture, Food, Music and Fashions in main stream America – and even a spotlight on “Arab Sicilia” written by a local Sicilian author.
FUSION is the new “International Cool, or Flavor” in this country. The trend is not only to be just a plain “American” but spiced-up with a bit of International Flare! These days, you’re definitely more interesting having a different sounding name – people tend to ask you where you’re from, or what does your name mean. Arab music, traditional Arab décor, Arab dance performances such as belly dancing, ethnic food, Fashionistas baring strong eye make-up and Arab dresses with a touch of Middle Eastern intrigue and accessories can be spotted in all our American main stream fashion, pop-culture and food-themed magazines. It seems a new wave of Americans are stepping up their “FUSION” identities and entrepreneurs are creating what can be called a "fusion" culture, in which foods, fashions, music, and the like from many countries of the Middle East are "fused" both with each other and with elements from Western culture.
SO CHEERS TO CELEBRATING FUSION!
Readers, please get involved! Over the past eleven years, the Al-Sahafa Newspaper has taken a major leadership role in educating the public about the vast, rich Arab culture, of which Arab Americans proudly come from and represent. This Nationally recognized publication has been a great tool of self-expression from our active readers, as well as helped inform the country of the various events, and programs, taking place each month, concerning Arab Americans and the Middle East.
The Al-Sahafa Newspaper USA is here for you. Please share with us your opinions, thoughts, articles, personal stories, and editorials – by emailing us directly: office@al-sahafa.us or join our Facebook Group titled; Al-Sahafa Newspaper USA.
HAPPY NEW YEAR’S!
