Ahmet Kaya
10/28/1957
11/16/2000
Turkish-Kurdish singer, who with his bağlama by his side built a rather successful career in Turkey. He was distrusted by both the left and the (right-wing) authorities. His political convictions and his subject matter, which increasingly focused on the Turkish-Kurdish conflict, eventually led to his persecution by Turkish nationalists, from authorities and colleagues alike, him fleeing the country and subsequently dying in exile in Paris a year later
