Alevis in Germany, representations and organizing

<p>We're joined by political scientist Efsun Kızılay to talk about the history of the Alevi diaspora within the diaspora from Turkey in Germany. </p><p>We adress their role within organized guestworkers from Turkey after the Anwerbeabkommen, the difficulties they faced &amp; political allies they had and how they were often misrepresented in the diaspora, as well as in their home country and in Germany. </p><p>Also calling the Sivas massacre an anti-muslim attack is stupid, just to be clear.</p><br><p><em>Links to Efsun's work in German:</em></p><br><p>https://twitter.com/efsun_kizilay?lang=en</p><br><p>https://instagram.com/efsun._?utm_medium=copy_link</p><br><p>https://www.rosalux.de/publikation/id/42811/migration-und-arbeitskaempfe?cHash=a8cf2cb4318be3115df7e3aa01e048c8</p><br><p>https://www.rosalux.de/news/id/44424/anschlag-von-hanau-warum-haben-sie-uns-voller-hass-das-leben-weggenommen?cHash=c805d5dabf721dc6e1ca1b42d0c57b39</p><br><p>https://www.rosalux.de/news/id/43274/kampf-um-erinnerung-wieso-gibt-es-noch-immer-kein-mahnmal-in-koeln?cHash=b06fdda5bfac2858f6e4c81b1401a2ed</p><br><p><br></p><p><em>A documentary about the Sivas massacre:</em></p><br><p>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRKg-9yN930&amp;t=138s</p><br><p><br></p><p><em>Soundtrack:</em></p><br><p>Ali Ekber Çiçek - Haydar Haydar</p><p>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-EfJBsf_3Q</p><br><p><br></p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> See <a style='color:grey;' target='_blank' rel='noopener noreferrer' href='https://acast.com/privacy'>acast.com/privacy</a> for privacy and opt-out information.</p>
