Kurdish Citizen

Our Kurdish citizens... We have been hearing this word frequently since the Kurdish "reality" has been recognized semi-officially or half-heartedly in Turkey.
This is an expression that gives meaning to Kurdish identity in the context of Turkish citizenship. So, what does it mean to be a Kurdish citizen of Turkey?
Really? Is this second-class citizenship? What kind of citizenship experience is being a Kurd in Turkey? While Hamza Aktan was looking for the answer to this simple question,
It looks at the social faces of the "Kurdish reality". It focuses on the concrete life worlds that make up the big picture.
• Kurds' experiences of speaking and not being able to speak their native language…
• Social, cultural and class differentiation processes of Kurds in Kurdish cities…
• Being a Kurd in Turkish cities – and “Home Kurds” hiding their identity…
• Kurds in his political career…
• Clichés of popular culture, culture industry and Kurdish cultural production…
• The sufferings of being a Kurd in the media…
• Perhaps the biggest challenge: Doing military service as a Kurd…
• The freedoms and limitations of being a Kurd abroad…
• Disorders of young Kurds…
• School strategies of Kurdish students and teachers…
• Kurdish activism on the internet as a medium for discussion, sharing and resentment…

The detailed Kurdish citizen landscape drawn by Hamza Aktan with live observations also mirrors the tremendously rapid social change in Kurdish society.
