    So honored to be with the #Yazidi community on the 5th anniversary of the Yazidi Genocide. They are living a powerful version of the American Dream: Brutally persecuted, they fled to a new home. They now proudly wave the American flag while keeping alive their ancient traditionspic.twitter.com/jrQhyFVIA6

        I appreciate this. I disagree with you quite a bit, but this is the kind of attitude we need to have towards immigrants.

        Yazidi الايزيدية @Ezidi2
        8 Yazidi villages have been evacuated in NE Syria where several hundreds Yazidis live. ISIS first & Turkey & it’s radical allied groups now, are annihilating our people in Syria. From 80,000 Yazidis, there will be none if this invasion continues. @murad_ismael a #Yazidi activist pic.twitter.com/f34wMQLKvg

        Turkey is threatening Rojava of an invasion which will undoubtedly result in ethnically cleansing the indigenous Kurds and forced demographic changes, as we see in the occupied Kurdish town of Afrin. We must stop Erdogan and his fascist government from committing such atrocities.

        When you are posing for a photo to be taken with a Yazidi woman and that Yazidi woman smiles, then you have to ask yourself "are you meeting the right Yazidi woman?".
