ASLI MURAT | YENİDÜZEN
I met the world on the 25th day of September in 1985. I do not know whether this is because I was born in autumn or not, but I have a melancholic nature. Melancholic but not sad. One should not be sad. Otherwise one can lose one’s belief in life. I grew up in a left-wing family environment that cared about equality and justice. Foundations of my tough and feminist stance were laid then. I studied Law in Istanbul University and became a lawyer in 2008. Then of course my soul was overwhelmed, I was unable to contain myself and I continued my studies in Istanbul Bilgi University Human Rights Law postgraduate program. After which, once again, I returned to the cage. I have been working as a lawyer, doing research in civil society, dealing in politics and writing since 2011, while dreaming of peace.
