Women endure ‘ongoing persecution,’ say Advocates of Silenced Turkey

In the aftermath of the failed coup attempt in 2016, the Turkish government arrested, detained, sacked, and tortured hundreds of thousands of innocent people. The government’s heavy-handed persecution has reached the lives of thousands of women, along with their infants and children in many cases.

Unprecedented (buy the book!)

Ron Faust, PeaceWorks-KC’s own poet laureate, is out with a new book of poetry. Titled Unprecedented, Faust wrote it during the presidency of Donald Trump. The cover displays two mountain ranges under clouds of darkness. These represent the two sides of every issue, Faust explains.
