SUMMARY:Newroz Reception 2026
DESCRIPTION:Newroz Reception at Rutgers University in New Jersey organizaed by the Kurdish Studies Graduate Student Association. \n“When Kurds light the Newroz fire\, they do more than welcome spring; they affirm a future in which freedom is measured not by the willingness to die\, but by the ability to live with dignity. Newroz carries a simple yet profound truth: winter ends\, hope returns\, and political awakening begins with imagination\,” Dr. Kamal Soleimani.
