On the Season 2 debut of Lost Cultures: Living Legacies , we travel to Bermuda, an Atlantic island whose history spans centuries and continents. Once uninhabited, Bermuda became a vital stop in transatlantic trade, a maritime stronghold, and a cultural crossroads shaped by African, European, Caribbean, and Native American influences. Guests Dr. Kristy Warren and Dr. Edward Harris trace its transformation from an uninhabited island to a strategic outpost shaped by shipwrecks, colonization, the transatlantic slave trade, and the rise and fall of empires. Plus, former Director of Tourism Gary Phillips shares the story of the Gombey tradition, a vibrant performance art rooted in resistance, migration, and cultural fusion. Together, they reveal how Bermuda’s layered past continues to shape its people, culture, and identity today.

As American universities are taken over by riot police, this week’s review looks at questions about the nature of power and liberal democracy; and at how some issues create world-defining moments while others fail to get picked up by international radar. It looks at the silence over Turkey’s ongoing and relentless attacks on the Kurds; and it looks at the importance of Abdullah Öcalan’s critique of liberal democracy in favour of direct democracy, and at attempts to put this into practice in North and East Syria.

From Aleppo to Kobani (Kobanê) and Qamishli (Qamişlo), journalist Fréderike Geerdink offers a rare on-the-ground account of Kurdish resistance, grassroots resilience, and political negotiation in North and East Syria (Rojava) - an unfiltered look at the stakes and struggles defining the region today.…
Fréderike Geerdink marks her 200th opinion piece for Medya News, offering a sharp analysis of the Kurdish Freedom Movement and the ongoing reconciliation process in Turkey. As an expert on Kurdish struggles, Geerdink dissects the evolving political landscape and the growing demand for peace.
Despite Abdullah Öcalan’s historic call for peace, Turkey remains deeply resistant to change. Fréderike Geerdink argues that while Kurds are ready for a peaceful resolution, Turkish society and politics remain frozen, refusing to move even an inch. The media's treatment of Öcalan’s message, including the silencing of the Kurdish language, exposes deep-seated racism and a continued reluctance to engage in genuine dialogue. With the government shaping the public narrative to suit its agenda, the question remains: can Turkey take real steps toward peace, or is this yet another wasted opportunity?…
There have been great expaectations for Abdullah Öcalan’s long-awaited call for a democratic path forward, but the announcement has been postponed. Independent journalist Fréderike Geerdink explores the reasons behind the delay, linking it to state repression, political manoeuvres and ongoing consultations with Kurdish leaders. Despite setbacks - including the Turkish state’s latest replacement of an elected mayor with a trustee appointment in Van - Geerdink argues that Öcalan’s call is inevitable, as peace remains the only viable future.…

In an interview, PYD's Salih Muslim discusses Syria's crisis, calling for a flexible federal system, cessation of Turkish attacks on Kurdish areas, and Kurdish unity. He stresses the importance of inclusive talks and highlights Abdullah Öcalan's potential role in peace efforts.
As we wait for the anticipated peace message from Kurdish leader Abdullah Öcalan, Turkey is attacking Kurdish freedoms both through violence and through wile. The Permanent Peoples’ Tribunal has been examining Turkey’s past violence in Rojava as war crimes and crimes against humanity. These crimes persist, and meanwhile, Turkey is attempting to negotiate a new role for itself in Syria, and to ensure the end of the Kurdish-led Autonomous Administration.…

The Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria is under existential attack from Turkey and their mercenaries. This has been a week of broken ceasefire agreements and of difficult negotiations. The Administration has put forward proposals and compromises, but is ready for total resistance, while Erdoğan has restated his neo-Ottoman ambitions. The United States is in the middle, but political solutions are not helped by the lack of public awareness and so of public pressure.…

Turkey has continued their attack on democracy by ousting the DEM Party Mayor of Tunceli (Dersim) and the CHP Mayor of nearby Ovacık (Pulur), provoking mass resistance and employing heavy policing. A BBC documentary has highlighted Turkey’s weaponising of water against the people of North and East Syria. And Öcalan has again been refused access to his lawyers.

1 Sarah GLYNN - Turkey’s 'state initiative' is no solution to the Kurdish Question – a weekly news review 21:01
Erdoğan’s chief advisor has declared that what is happening is not a “solution process”, but a "state initiative towards a terror-free Turkey". So far, this “state initiative” doesn’t look very different from the previous approach of eliminating the PKK through state violence, and the crushing of Kurdish politics. Elected mayors are being removed, and Erdoğan continues to talk about, effectively, occupying the north of Syria and Iraq. Meanwhile, the election of Trump adds a new layer of uncertainty.…
