- The Organised Suppression of Kurdish Journalists in Iran
Resource Type: Article Published: 2015 It has been nearly 120 years since the first Kurdish newspaper, 'Kordestan' was published a publication which did not in come into existence here in Kurdistan, but in exile in Egypt, its later life being in Europe. In 1909, 'Kordestan' was banned from publishing by the Ottoman Empire. Despite the ban being placed over a century ago, with its founders and journalists having been arrested and prosecuted, it seems that even today the fate of Kurdish journalism is intertwined with that of 'Kordestan'.

Connexions Enters Its Fifth Decade Resource Type: Serial Publication (Periodical) Published: 2016 This issue of Connexions Other Voices falls on the 40th anniversary of the publication of the very first Connexions newsletter, which was published in February 1976. That first issue carried the title "Canadian Information Sharing Service", which was also the name of the collective which compiled it, from submissions from across Canada. Within a couple of years, the name of the publication became "Connexions" and then, a little later, "The Connexions Digest". In addition to our own history, in this issue we spotlight black history as our topic of the week. We look at the Haitian revolution, when slaves confronted the French empire and won; black resistance against the Ku Klux Klan in the American South, and the meaning and limits of anti-racism. We also look at the Kurdish liberation movement in Rojava, the dangers posed by geoengineering, and we mark the publication of the Communist Manifesto on February 21, 1848.

International Women's Day Resource Type: Serial Publication (Periodical) Published: 2016 In this issue of Other Voices, we mark International Women's Day. An article written by Alexandra Kollontai in 1920 talks about the early history of this event, which grew out of a proposal put forward by Clara Zetkin at the 1910 International Conference of Working Women. A key focus at that time was winning the vote for women, with the slogan "The vote for women will unite our strength in the struggle for socialism". The link between women's rights and socialism became even clearer a few years later, in 1917, when a Women's Day march in St. Petersburg turned into a revolutionary uprising which led to the overthrow of the Czar and the Russian Revolution.

- Women on the frontlines of Kurdish struggles: An interview with JI.NHA women's news agency
Resource Type: Article Published: 2016 In 2015, Corporate Watch visited Bakur (meaning 'North' in Kurmanji), the Kurdish region within Turkey's borders. We interviewed two journalists from JI.NHA, an all-women news agency made up of mostly Kurdish women, based in Amed. Our meeting with JI.NHA took place just after the Turkish election in June 2015. Since our interviews, the Turkish state has begun a new war on its Kurdish population. Cities have been attacked by the police and military with mortars, tanks and helicopters and every day Kurdish citizens are being murdered. People in cities across Bakur have erected barricades in their neighbourhoods to defend themselves against the violence and are trying to organise autonomously from the state.
