I monthly host 2-3 people of various sexually and socially oppressed minority groups in Turkey, ranging from queer individuals, Syrians, refugees, Jews, and Armenians to Kurdish people. I try to shed light on the systematic subjugation and suppression of these minorities by the Turkish population and government. All of these minorities are frequently denied fundamental human rights, and their progress in society is hindered simply because of their ethnicity or religion. By making the stories and hardships of these minorities known to the public, this podcast aims to change the world’s and the Turkish public’s perception of minorities, ultimately contributing to creating a more peaceful, inclusive, and progressive country.
