Learned today that apparently turkey was funding studies into the melungeon myth. If you don't know what melungeons are, they're a group of hillbillies who claim they're descendants of turks. quote:To counter Armenian political activities in Washington, the Turkish government regularly reaches out to anyone who could be co-opted with all-expense-paid trips, special gifts, and other financial inducements, including funding studies and conferences on the alleged Turkish origin of Melungeons. Even though these one million Appalachians do not carry much political clout in Congress, Ankara is interested in claiming them to be of Turkish descent, hoping to strengthen its political and economic clout in the United States. https://armenianweekly.com/2012/07/25/sassounian-dna-study-busts-myth-that-one-million-appalachians-are-of-turkish-descent/

https://youtu.be/Fwnhk1qmi9I?feature=shared The West African countries of Niger, Burkina Faso, and Mali are in rebellion against their former colonial masters, while the imperialists of the Global North try desperately to contain the situation. But the portrayal of these developments as mere “coups” hides the depth of popular anger, particularly against the French? What almost no one else is telling is the story of popular movements and organizations in West Africa who are supporting the military transition governments. Where do they come from? Could this spill over into other African countries? Where does pan-Africanism fit in? Where do Russia and China fit in, if at all? To discuss this and more, Rania Khalek was joined by Kambale Musavuli, an activist, writer, and analyst with the Center for Research on the Congo.

Azerbaijan reissues Nagorno-Karabakh map with street named after Turkish leader of 1915 Armenian genocidequote:Two weeks after the surrender of Nagorno-Karabakh following a lightning-fast military offensive, on Tuesday, October 3, Azerbaijan re-issued a map of the capital of the former Armenian separatist enclave (Stepanakert in Armenian, Khankendi in Azerbaijani), with street names in Azerbaijani. One of these streets is named after Turkish military officer Enver Pasha, one of the main instigators of the Armenian genocide of 1915. The map was first published in August 2021. This has put me in a foul mood.

mawarannahr posted:wasn't ours honestly this all seems kinda optimistic in its estimates. at best this seems like the expenses for people far outside the city center where most of the big universities are. certainly that “groceries and eating out” part can mean “only groceries”. loving 200 lira for a goddamn cheeseburger in the uni neighborhoods, you aren’t eating out on a 2k food budget. the rent is about what I pay, but it’s also like half what any new lease in my working class area would go for. maybe they’re assuming students are commuting from Pendik or something.

i can get a basic kasarli tost in gulbag for like 40 lira, but a sosisli tost near galata or whatever? 80-120 I passed through paris and brussels this past summer and I'd say they were probably cheaper in dollars than lots of Istanbul is. usually if I'm too lazy to cook at home i go to one of those workers cafeterias where you can still get a decent meal for like 50 lira or so. they aren't able to chase gulf state tourist money so the prices stay in a sane place

That is one thing I noticed about Istanbul; it really wasn't that cheap even if you had dollars. Perhaps a bit cheaper than the US, but more expensive than parts of Europe. Anyone with lira has had their savings long since liquidated, and anyone working a job is seeing their income drop in real time.
