★ FEATURE
Biography
Dalal Khario is a Yazidi writer from northern Iraq who became a voice for survivors of ISIS violence. Born in 1997, she was 17 when ISIS fighters conquered Sinjar and the surrounding villages, including her native village of Hardan, on August 3, 2014. Khario was abducted and held captive for nine months, during which she was forced into marriages and raped repeatedly. She escaped and fled to Germany.
In 2016, Khario published her memoir I Remain a Daughter of the Light under the pseudonym "Shirin". The book documents her experiences and survival. In February 2017, she received the Women's Rights Award at the 9th annual Geneva Summit for Human Rights and Democracy. At the ceremony, she reflected on the bittersweet nature of the recognition—her mother and younger sister, both taken by ISIS, could not be there to celebrate with her. An estimated 4,000 Yazidi women and children remain held hostage. Khario's hometown has been destroyed, with 500 residents found in mass graves. Her family remains fractured: her mother was taken to Raqqa in Syria, her sister is still missing, and her brother is dead. As a writer from Iraq, Khario continues to bear witness to genocide and displacement.
