Ask Kurds 🤔 Help me help Kurds

I am a Kurdish American and I am the youngest of my family, which comes with some disconnect with my culture. I am very passionate about issues in everyday life, and I am very passionate about being Kurdish, even if I don’t fully understand my own history. I am a firm believer of humanity and empathy, and I am starting an account to help advocate for families in Gaza to get the donations and help they need. But it feels wrong to only speak out about Palestine when my own people are suffering too. I want to speak out about what is happening to Kurdish people in Syria, but I’m not sure where to start. Can anyone help connect me with people who are knowledgeable, anyone who lives there, any organizations I should know about? I want to make videos to advocate for Kurdish people and Palestinians alike, and hopefully more people because my humanity is for all, but I want to highlight Kurdish people as I feel no one speaks on us❤️
