About

These are the Kurds of eastern Turkey and the land where they live. They’ve been largely forced out of their nomadic lifestyle in the mountains during a struggle for self-determination with the Turkish army. Now living in major and minor urban areas primarily in the southeast, the fighting has recently been re-newed. These photos were taken during the cease fire in late 2003.
