Ofir Ben Shitrit[edit]

(

)

... that 17-year-old Ofir Ben Shitrit was called "the religious Rosa Parks" after performing on The Voice Israel despite rabbinic law prohibiting women from singing in front of men? Source: "Ofir, just 17 at the time, was suspended for two weeks from her religious all-girls school in Ashdod for violating the Jewish laws of kol isha when she participated in the Israeli talent-search television show, 'The Voice.' According to strict interpretation of these laws, men are not supposed to listen to women sing." (The New York Jewish Week); " תוך החפצתך לרוזה פארקס הדתייה [out of your desire to be the religious Rosa Parks]" (Makor Rishon)

New enough, long enough, neutral.
Well-cited but some sources are in Hebrew, so I am unable to double-check them.
The hook is short enough, neutral, and hooky. It is based on an article in Hebrew.
