Welcome to our KZbin channel, solely dedicated to words.
Say Your Word is a digital platform by the acclaimed novelist, storyteller and women’s rights activist Elif Shafak.
A platform for words and anyone who cares about them.
Language is the key to understanding and unlocking our world.
It is also the key to the human heart.
Words are often said to have power.
What is not said that often is that they can hurt and even spread hatred and hostility, just like they can heal and bring about love, empathy and wisdom.
They can divide, distance and "dehumanise", just like they can connect and “rehumanise" those who have been dehumanised.
East and West, North and South, regardless of race, sex, gender, colour, religion, ethnicity, nationality or any other category, we are all made of stories.
Stories bring us together, untold stories keep us apart.
Today's word is SHAME.
Subscribe to Elif Shafak's new KZbin channel to discover the beauty, complexity and magic of words.

Çok bilgilendirici ve anlamlı bir video olmuş gerçekten. Bu dedikleriniz Türkiye'de son sürat devam etmektedir maalesef ki. Henüz 17 yaşındayım ama defalarca kez toplumdaki sözde çok ahlaklı insanların korkunç bakışlarına ve sözlerine defalarca kez mağruz kaldım. Onlara bu dediklerinin yanlış olduğunu anlatmaya çalıştığımda ise terbiyesiz olduğum iddia edildi. Çünkü giyim kuşamım ve onlara dediklerim "ayıp"🤠🤠 umarım gelecekte daha özgür bir ülke daha özgür insanlar oluruz dünyaca çünkü her insan değerlidir ve bu tür şeyler yaşayarak hayatlarında bir travmanın olmasını istemem 🥺

You've unvailed the true concept of shame in patriarchal society within we live. Great appreciation 👏 👌

You’re an inspiration. I love you so much 💜

The sentences are not enough to describe shame, whose roots are very deep.
