About this listen

The world is talking about Rojava. Democratic confederalism, ecological lifestyle, feminism and more theoretical stuff. Besides all the theory, the question is: what is life really like in the revolution? What problems do we face on the journey for a free life? What are our difficulties in the midst of a revolutionary process? What do we learn from the young women and mothers who weave the change of society with their hands. Together we seek answers to these questions.Çay at the Women's Front Political Science Politics & Government

  • Paris - The City of Murder
    Jan 16 2023

    In the heart of Europe, in the so called city of love, a feminicide against Kurdish revolutionaries happened for the second time. On Dec. 23rd 2022, three Kurdish friends have been shot in Paris and lost their lives. One of them was Evin, who has been a vanguard in the Kurdish women’s movement for decades. This massacre reminds everyone immediatly of the killing that happened exactly 10 years ago, also in Paris. At that time three women of the Kurdish women's movement had been shot, who played a leading role in the women's freedom struggle.

    Who were these women and why were they targeted? What is the connection between these two murders? And who is responsible for the killings? These questions and more we discuss in this last episode of the third season on our podcast. Arjîn, a kurdish young women who is active in the women's movement in Europe and Anja, who has known Evin personally, are answering all our questions!

  • In The Free Mountains
    Dec 11 2022

    What is going on in the free mountains of Kurdistan? Kurdistan and it's people are going through the most difficult time in their history right now. In eastern Kurdistan the people, led by brave young women, are relentlessly fighting in the streets against the Iranian Regime. West-Kurdistan, Rojava is continuously under military attack by the Turkish state. But what is actually happening in the mountains of north and south Kurdistan is not widely known.

    Horrible photos are circling in the internet. The mountains in which the Kurdish Guerilla is living and fighting for freedom, are under the heaviest attacks. The Turkish army is bombing the freedom fighters with chemical and other internationally banned weapons.

    But why is no one intervening? Who are the Guerilla, these young women and men, that are resisting so fearlessly? And what do they have to do with the Rojava-Revolution? These questions and all facts about the current chemical attacks, are the topics of this new episode "In The Free Mountains".
