Ocalan's Angels
1. Young Kurdish women are represented in a way that opposes the stereotypes of Women that make women out to be housewives and mothers only. For example Van Zoonen's theory states that the underlying frame of women in that they belong to a family and domesticated life, these representations are spoken a lot of with many magazines, however this magazine opposes this in several ways, this is because it gives us examples of many young women joining the fight against ISIS, it also states that they do make a difference by winning their fights which shows us that women can also make a difference and that they shouldn't be forced to live a domesticated life as they should be able to choose the life that they want. The fighters are also fighting for equal rights for women all across the world by showing everyone that they can do whatever men can do. It also opposes the ideologies that only men belong to work and politics as it clearly shows us that women are eager to join the fight against ISIS and that they are ready to kill and die for their cause which represents women in a very powerful way as they oppose all representations of women that state they only belong to a housewife and domesticated type of life.
2. These representations of woman say a lot about the ideologies of Huck, such as the type the woman they are and what message is Huck trying to present the society. Huck believes that woman is supposed to have equal rights, they suggest that they should not be forced in living the domestic life and not live a life that is expected from them, live in a patriarchal society, the woman should have the choice they want instead of being forced into what they do not want. Furthermore, Huck supports today's views of the woman being equal and they try their best to keep their views so it interests the readers. Moreover, Huck also mentions things that are relevant today such the fights against ISIS and instead of supporting the views and ideologies that woman should be housewives they support feminism as it mentions the story of young Kurdish fighters which support equal rights for woman all across the world. It supports the theory of Hook as she suggests the feminism is a fight end sexism.
3. The audience because of Huck and its somewhat big audience will be in favour of the young Kurdish women simply because Huck is in favour of them. Their messages will demonstrate a clear support towards the young women attracting the reader to also feel that way. The audience could also feel sympathy for these young girls, just because they know these women have to fight for something that could be avoided so easily. The stories mentioned will allow Huck's audience to again feel sorry for these women, as mentioned in the article about the girl who lost a friend. However, she does later mention that those experiences motivate them and inspire them to better everyone else's well-being.
4. In the article, the Kurdish women talk about how the 'only roles they are allowed to play are those homemakers and mothers'. This informs the audience that the Kurdish people have old ideologies about women . Bell Hooks theory about feminism supports this statement and the values that the Kurdish people have ' The idea that feminism is a struggle to end sexist / patriarchal oppression and the ideology of domination'. This idea is very evident within the Kurdish people, they believe that women have no other roles in society than being a mother and homemaker which limits and allows the men to dominate their lives.
