Newroz, which translates to 'New Day' in English, marks the Spring Equinox, the arrival of Spring and for many the new year. It is celebrated by millions of people across West Asia, Central Asia, parts of South Asia and globally within diaspora communities. For the Kurdish people, Newroz is not just a celebration but also symbolises acts and expressions of Kurdish culture and resistance against those who have denied the Kurdish identity and existence. In this episode we spoke to Rosa Burc, political sociologist and Phd researcher at the Centre on Social Movement Studies in Florence.
