A voice from the Sahel and Tindo: Baaba Maal at TEDxHousesofParliament

Baaba Maal gives a short talk entitled 'A voice from the Sahel" (2:50mins) and sings the song Tindo (7 mins)

Baaba Maal is a uniquely talented singer and musician from Senegal, emerging into the international spotlight.

He is a member of the Pulaar (also known as Fulani) minority from Northern Senegal and since he wasn't born into a griot (traditional musician) family, he wasn't encouraged to become a performer, but instead studied law. He is a scholar as well as a singer and has spent much of his life studying the Sahel region
