A new podcast called “Çay on the women's front” is being produced by internationalist women who talk about their daily experiences in the Rojava revolution.

Presenting the podcast, the internationalist women said: “The Rojava revolution is clearly an internationalist revolution. Thanks to her, we, diverse young women from different parts of the world, have come together. Our different ethnic backgrounds, different socializations, different experiences in the individual politicization process and much more make us a colorful group that does not always agree, but always has a lot to discuss. But that's what the revolution is about, not always agreeing to one another and creating changes in this way, isn't it?"

The women added: “The world is talking about Rojava. Democratic confederalism, ecological lifestyle, feminism and more theoretical stuff. Besides all the theory, the question is: what is life really like in the revolution? What problems do we face on the journey for a free life? What are our difficulties in the midst of a revolutionary process? What do we learn from the young women and mothers who weave the change of society with their hands. Together we seek answers to these questions.”

As to how did this podcast come about, the answer given by women is this: “We sat together over a cup of tea and discussed revolution, women's liberation and our experiences here in Rojava. From the first days of our arrival to our struggle with the Kurdish language, a new chapter in our lives emerged. This "revolutionary book”, these thoughts, reflections, moments and experiences, which are accompanied by great feelings, we want to share with you.”
