In this episode of Sister Sister, host and teen peacebuilder Zipporah sits down with Kawsar Yasin, a Uyghur student and activist at Harvard, to explore what it means to speak out in the face of genocide.

Together, they unpack the history of state violence and cultural erasure in East Turkestan (Xinjiang), the criminalization of Uyghur identity and faith, and how sisterhood, memory, and joy are radical acts of resistance.

From secret prayer circles to student protests, from ancestral shrines to Harvard classrooms, Kawsar shares her journey of reclaiming voice, honoring community, and building global solidarity.

📍 Sister Sister is a special series from Brooklyn Peace Center’s podcast Teaching Peace, amplifying the voices of women from regions impacted by war, genocide, and displacement.
