"This conflict "is indicative of the bad policy implemented by the FDS and the Americans' miscalculations," said Omar Abu Layla, director of the Deir Ezzor 24 analysis center. The province's residents blame the Americans, whose strategy boils down to the fight against terrorism, for having delegated local governance to Kurdish forces to the detriment of setting up an autonomous, representative authority"

I would like to share that I will be working as a postdoctoral researcher at the College of Mexico's (#Colmex) Center for Asian and African Studies starting this September. I will work on a project about the representations of #Kurdish people as the ethnic 'other'.

MPs know why.

Criticism arises over exclusion of #Kurdish in e-prescription system.

The system used by healthcare professionals is now available in five additional languages besides #Turkish. MPs question why Kurdish is not among them. #Turkey

Hey 🐘, I'm feeling better than I have in months. Might start posting again.

This protestor’s sign in #Suwayda, shared on Twitter by a #Kurdish journalist from #Syria, pays tribute to Hevrin Khalaf in #Arabic. Khalaf was brutally murdered by a Turkish-backed Syrian rebel group during the 2019 Turkish invasion of northern Syria. These protestors, in other words, are protesting foreign-backed/sectarian/ #Islamist militarized rebels as well as #Assad, rebuking the former for claiming their anti-regime cause. It’s a dangerous and courageous position to take publicly

Your solar feathers, flying free

#Turkey

"In Northern #Syria, 2.5 million #people are living in a stateless, feminist, religiously tolerant, anti-capitalist #society of their own creation. They call their territory #Rojava, and they defend it fiercely. They’re at war with the extremist group ISIS, and they’re doing better than anyone in the #world expected — least of all the Western powers who seek to treat them as pawns.

It’s a complicated situation, but we in the rest of the world have much to learn from the Rojava #revolution. To that end, we offer this long-form introduction to the #history and the present struggle of the #Kurdish people.

Long live the Rojava revolution!"
