Susan, 18, voluntarily teaches the Kurdish language in one of Kurdistan’s villages. Since teaching the Kurdish language is prohibited in Iranian Kurdistan schools, many volunteers spontaneously teach people to read and write Kurdish. Most people in villages are jobless and doing Kolbari to earn a bit of money. Kurdistan, Iran, December 2012.

Instead of dancing around bonfires in traditional Kurdish clothes and celebrating #Kurdish legends of resistance to tyranny, Shiwa Hassanpour, a 22-year-old Iranian Kurd and a human rights activist in Erbil, spent most of #Nowruz, the traditional Iranian new year, watching the #news.

Does your organisation work with #language #data in #Arabic, #Tagalog, #signLanguage, #Kannada, #Tamil, #Burmese, #Croatian, #Tigrinya, #Vietnamese, #Thai, #Pashto, #Uzbek, #German, #French or #Kurdish?
The @mozilladatacollective has an open #CfP to fund the uplift or creation of datasets in this space that focus on dialogic interaction, multimodal - so video or speech paired with transcription, or which focus on the intersectionality of under-represented contexts or domains.
Is that your organisation?

https://theconversation.com/why-the-next-escalation-in-the-iran-conflict-could-be-between-the-us-and-turkey-278341. "For #Turkey, the collapse or fragmentation of the #Iranian state would be deeply worrying. It could create exactly the conditions #Turkish leaders fear most: armed #Kurdish groups operating across a much longer & more unstable border. Another concern is the possibility of a new #refugee crisis. Turkey already hosts nearly 4 million #Syrians following the civil war that began there in 2011 - the largest refugee population in the world."

Spirituality & Religious Studies @spiritualityreligiousstudies.wordpress.com@spiritualityreligiousstudies.wordpress.com ·Yazids
Also spelled Yesidis.
They’re a Kurdish-speaking endogamous religious group indigenous to Kurdistan, a geographical region in Western Asia that includes parts of Iraq, Syria, Turkey, & Iran, with small numbers living in Armenia & Georgia (the country). Endogamy is the cultural practice of only marrying within a specific social group, religious denomination, caste, or ethnic group. The majority of the Yazidis remaining in the Middle East today live in Iraq, primarily in the governorates of Nineveh & Duhok.
Yazidism came about through a complex historical process involving a pre-Islamic Kurdish religious substratum & teachings of Sheikh Adi ibn Musafir. Generally, scholars regard Yazidism as an independent religious tradition with deep roots in ancient Iranian beliefs, shaped by later Sufi influences. Yazidism was adopted by many Kurdish tribes & Emirates. It reached as far west as Antioch & as far east as Sulaymaniyah. Sulaymaniyah/Slemani is a city in the East of the Kurdistan region of Iraq.
Yezidi manuscripts (called misurs) were written in the 13th century. It contains lists of Kurdish tribes affiliated with Yezidi Pir saints. Only 2 of the 40 total manuscripts have been published so far. Namely, the Misur of Pir Sini Darani & the Misur of Pir Xetib Pisi. The list in the Misur of Pir Sini Darani includes several large tribes that have been largely or fully Islamized today.
From the 14th century on, Yazidis developed their own religious & political institutions in the areas where they lived. The Yezidi territories were divided into 7 administrative centers. Each has its own Sincaq (This is an administrative division of the Ottoman Empire). More commonly known as Tawis among the Yezids. Sincaqs are sacred bronze effigies bearing the image of a bird or peacock to symbolize Tawusi Melek. They serve as symbols of power for each administrative center.
Every 6 months, the Yezidi Quwals, who are trained reciters of Qewls & other forms of sacred oral Yezidi tradition, were sent out to other Yezidi-inhabited areas with military protection from the central administrative region of Shekhan & the spiritual center of Lalish.
This tradition serves to preserve the Yazidi faith & doctrine. The Qewals, supported by voluntary alms, led a Sincaq through Yazidi villages to maintain spiritual legitimacy & symbolize the authority of Lalish & the Mir.
During WWI, the Armenian genocide of 1915 caused a mass exodus of Yazidis from Van, Kars, & Bazid, Turkey. Together with many Armenians, they fled from the Ottoman Empire in masses to Transcaucasia (a.k.a. South Caucasus. This is located on the border of Eastern Europe & West Asia, which straddles the southern Caucasus Mountains.).
They followed their families/relatives who had already migrated to the territories of the Russian Empire after fleeing during the Russo-Turkish wars in 1828-1829 & 1877-1878. In May 1918, Ottomans crossed the Akhuryan River to invade the Armenian Republic. The Yezidi participation in the decisive Battle of Sardarabad is still commemorated by Armenians.
Yazidism is a monotheistic faith based on belief in 1 God, who created the world & entrusted it into the care of a Heptad of the 7 Holy Beings. Often known as angels or heft sirr (the 7 Mysteries). Preeminent among these is Tawusi Melek (also known as Melek Taus), the Peacock Angel. Traditionally, Yazidis who marry non-Yazidis are considered to have converted to the religion of their spouse.

#KURDISH #FIGHTERS SIGNAL PUSH INTO #IRAN: An Iranian Kurdish nationalist group leader told Aljazeera that it’s “highly likely” that Iranian Kurds will push into Iran from the Iraqi side of the Iran-Iraq border. https://substack.com/redirect/7167deb4-6449-4c93-9c68-a84131a075df?j=eyJ1IjoiNnJmNHNqIn0.pDLJJa4BeU3JUHBDOtgqUWn11tL6mfLJq0SeGtmOZAI

#CNN is publishing "Everyone is watching to see whether #Kurdish fighters will launch a ground offensive into Western #Iran"
Kurdish academic and poet #HawzhinAzeez, former co-director of #TheKurdishCenterofStudies answers
"Who are we? Let me tell you, #America! We are the #Kurds you betrayed in #Rojava, north-east #Syria, your anti-#ISIS coalition partners. You sold us to #Turkey in 2018, which annexed our Kurdish city of #Afrin for allied jihadist factions. Then again in 2019, when our cities of #SereKaniye and #GireSpi were handed over to Turkey for “security concerns,” even though not a single bullet from Rojava had been fired toward Turkey. And once more in 2026, when you handed us over to the former ISIS and #alQaeda Syrian regime under the extreme hardliner #alJolani. Thousands of us were massacred, ethnically cleansed, hunted street by street. Our women fighters were beheaded, their braids cut as war trophies by jihadist men.
We are the Kurds you betrayed in #Basur, northern #Iraq, who held a popular referendum in 2017, winning by 97% to separate from Iraq, a country that had ethnically cleansed and murdered us for years, only for our freedom to be denied. The Iraqi central government, encouraged by your condemnation of our referendum, attacked us and forcibly took over our Kurdish city of #Kirkuk. -

Euphrates River Becomes the Last Battle Line in Syria’s Civil War
A standoff between the Syrian government and SDF threatens to destabilize northeastern Syriahttps://www.dropsitenews.com/p/euphrates-river-becomes-the-last
from #DropSiteNews

Nov 16, 2025The Euphrates, which runs for 700 miles across #Syria, has become a physical dividing line between two forces now contesting the future of the fragile country. The near bank is the limit of control by the Syrian government led from Damascus, while on the far bank are the positions of the #US-backed #SyrianDemocraticForces (#SDF). The SDF, a #Kurdish-led force that emerged during Syria’s civil war in opposition to the Bashar al-Assad regime, played a key role in the fight against the Islamic State. During the conflict, they captured large expanses of territory predominantly populated by Arabs on the far bank of the #Euphrates.
