Hi, Caroline -
Thanks for the heads-up - another one for the
shelves of our new Library ( once the shelves go
up, any day now)!
The Yezidi immigrants are definitely making their
presence felt here in the States, religiously and
culturally - for example, the dialogue going on
with Southern Baptist groups ( among others ) in
Tennessee, with interfaith study groups sharing
and comparing their origins and cosmologies.
And as an example of cultural / artistic impact,
I would point to the lovely acoustic guitar track
on William Tyler's 2010 *Behold the Spirit* album,
entitled "The Cult of the Peacock Angel".
