The Third Estate Sunday Review focuses on politics and culture. We're an online magazine. We don't play nice and we don't kiss butt. In the words of Tuesday Weld: "I do not ever want to be a huge star. Do you think I want a success? I refused "Bonnie and Clyde" because I was nursing at the time but also because deep down I knew that it was going to be a huge success. The same was true of "Bob and Carol and Fred and Sue" or whatever it was called. It reeked of success."

Nadia's Initiative Supports Hundreds of Female Farmers in Sinjar, Iraq
Nadia’s Initiative is excited to announce the launch of our Support to Women’s Livelihoods project that will benefit 345 female-headed farming households in Sinjar, Iraq. Nadia’s Initiative works to design sustainable development projects that are female-centric and target survivors in the Sinjar region. The aim of these projects is to strengthen the support systems for women in Sinjar and to improve the income generation capacity of women to support their livelihoods and increase their resilience. The people of Sinjar have experienced the worst crimes against humanity, and their crisis is ongoing. Women in particular have endured tremendous suffering and should now be afforded the opportunity to gain economic independence and provide for their families. Providing women with skills and support is fundamentally important to rebuilding the Yazidi community and is a crucial step to the formation of a gender-inclusive society. This project is implemented by Dorcas Aid International and is financed by the GIZ commissioned by the Government of the Federal Republic of Germany.
