Distressing but very informative Zan Times article from the 1912 work Siraj al Tawarikh, which recorded 19th century Afghanistani history: https://zantimes.com/2025/03/27/youtube-interviews-mention-of-hazara-women-and-maternal-lineage-sparks-debate-on-afghanistans-history-of-slavery-and-oppression/

New day, new majoritarian and anti-Hazara, anti-Hazara (and Tajik, Uzbek, etc) comment which is allowed to stay up and often upvoted. See the recent thread regarding partition - a person claiming “Pashtons are oppressed” getting more support than someone discussing the reality of Hazara and other non-Pashton exclusion.

It’s sad that supposedly educated diaspora kids/youth in the West have internalized the Pashton nationalist / exclusionary narratives they’re hearing at home or seeing online.

In a continuation of repression against Shia Hazara and other ethnoreligious minorities by the Afghan state, the education ministry has distributed a pledge to all universities to be signed by students denouncing “innovation” and officially becoming Hanafi Sunnis
