Description
Join me as I explore the untold story of the Marsh Arabs in southern Iraq, a community devastated by one of history's lesser-known genocides. Under Saddam Hussein's regime, these people faced unimaginable destruction, their homes in the vibrant wetlands drained and their culture nearly wiped out.
In this video, I travel deep into the heart of Iraq, meeting the descendants of this resilient community and uncovering the human stories of the people I meet along the way.

enjoy, mike x
