Kurdistan, spicy food, conspiracy theories, sunflowers, mountains, sunsets. That’s all for now.

A concert arranged by ‘Tîpî Mosîqay Şehîd Karzan’ in Seqiz in 1990. This is when I remember being in awe of my mother (the woman on the far top right) and having Merro Merro tattooed to my soul. #Kurdistan

Holy decorative art on the human body: Deq - Kurdish tattoos.

Sverige, här är min bok som släpps 5 maj. En bok som tar avstamp i mina tidigaste minnen från min hemstad Mahabad i Kurdistan, Iran. ”Jag är min mammas dotter. Dotter av en kvinna.”En bok om mig, min familj, kvinnorna och den kurdiska befrielsekampen.

Once and for all. Kurds oppose the Islamic Republic and the monarchy. Both stand for oppression, ethnic cleansing, assimilation. To destroy the Kurdish identity with Persian motto of ‘One flag, one nation, one language’. Iran has no future unless it goes towards true democracy.

Dear @nytimes this image of the year that you published is from Jina Amini’s Kurdish hometown Saqez. Her Kurdish rightful name is Jina, not Mahsa the name imposed on her. The people in the picture in the thousands and thousands out risking their lives are Kurds. Correction maybe?

Turkey is aiding ISIS again by attacking northeast Syria, paving the way for those in jails and camps to cause chaos and instability.

Turkey would rather have ISIS as its neighbor than the #Kurds, that’s how deep the hatred is.

@LeilaAmin1 Hej! Är du ordförande/medlem i Kurdiska Läkaresällskapet i Sverige? Vänner från Rojhelat har startat en Call for Action för att hjälpa kurderna som utsatts för kemiska attacker av Iran. Läkare i diasporan är samlade. Kan du tänka dig bidrag med hjälp?

[Ala Riani @AlaRiani]

Reports emerging that Iran is using chemical attacks on the Kurdish population in Ciwanro, Bokan and Xanê. This is a serious act of violation against any human rights doctrine and international resolutions. The international community must act now! @UN @hrw @Europarl_EN

[Beri Shalmashi @BeriShalmashi]

This.

[Ala Riani @AlaRiani]

The Islamic Republic of Iran is committing massacres in the Kurdish towns. Mahabad. Now Ciwanro (Javanroud). Images of people shot by direct fire of regime forces. In the last 6 days Iran has killed 40 Kurdish men and boys. Targeted violence by the state against an ethnic group.

A separatist? That’s quite the compliment.

We proudly want to separate from our occupiers.

What a joke Sweden is. You exported a ton of terrorists to join IS. Turkey 🦃 created the open corridor for all of Europe’s terrorists to easily cross their land to join IS. And you have the nerve to turn your back on YPG? Trash!

[X @xoshink]

@chelseahartisme The share amount of racism shown by Persians in the comments is disturbing. Minorities have been subjected to hate crimes & inequality not just under the Islamic republic, but far before that. Persian hate will not erase the existence of Kurds or Kurdistan.

This is Komar’s father. I’m out of words. Might translate this for you later.
