Written on September 18, 2011 by Editor in Syria September-17-Munther-school By Support Kurds in Syria: Hundreds of Kurds participated in the opening of a school Munther which is named after a martyr, in the village of Qastl Makhted, in the Afrin area. The school has been created so that children can learn about their Kurdish heritage and culture. Those attending the opening included members of the Martys Family Association and the Ankezk Cultural Group. Four women whose children died as martyrs cut the ribbon for dignity and freedom for the Kurdish people. Teachers at the school spoke about the importance of having a school with this focus especially at this time, because recognition of Kurdish culture and language is the foundation for democratic self-autonomy. They said this is the first step towards achieving this goal. http://kurdistantribune.com/2011/de...r-kurdish-culture-without-government-consent/
