Womens’ temple Xatuna Fexra in Sinjar
Yazidi women who escaped from captivity from IS were brave to talk about the brutal violence they experienced. Women for Justice e.V. did 12 interviews between December 2017 and March 2018 with Yazidi women in Qamishli (Rojava), Sinjar (Şengal/Northern Iraq) and in Baden-Württemberg Region (Germany). By telling their stories and allowing us to take them for an exhibition, these women not only demand justice before courts but also want the world to understand what happened. They want to avoid that anyone can deny the atrocities. Also, they want to inform that the Genocide is still ongoing, that family members are still in captivity. These are stories of harm and strength. They hope for rehabilitation, justice, human rights, international support and peace for all Yazidis and other people in the world struggling to survive. Yazidi women ask for support in their struggle to become strong to demand and receive justice.
