Story telling and narratives play an important role in our understanding of the world and truth. From oral traditions to strategic narratives, Kurdish society is vibrant with story telling. Tales of heroes and heroines, enemies and tyrants, struggle and suffering, and victory and virtue inspire us and pass on collective memories. But are we losing the culture of storytelling as technology and modernity advances?
Joining us is Kurdish feminist, writer, lecturer and anti-war activist Houzan Mahmoud. We discuss her new book ‘Kurdish Women’s Stories’ along with the power of stories.
