The Rojava revolution is still facing attacks from fascist jihadist forces. Join us at 6pm on Thursday 12th February at Elm Grove Cafe (89 Elm Grove BN2 3ET) to watch a short film, share food, and discuss what we can do to defend the revolution.

Film: Berxwedan Jiyane: The Resistance of Tishreen — Tishreen Dam in North-East Syria supplies water to the entire region. In January 2025, it was attacked in order to break the resistance of the people who, since 2012, have built a revolution in the region (also known as Rojava) based on women’s liberation, grassroots democracy, and ecology. The people together defended the dam.

This will be a fundraiser for the Kurdish Red Crescent, who are providing medical support to the thousands of internally displaced people in Rojava right now.
