Storify Project

For my English class I was assigned to create a project with Storify.com. I assembled a few of my favorite quotes and pictures with themes of silence and self-doubt. Perhaps I should consider it still a work in progress, but this was what I accomplished under the time limit of the class:

Lost Songs of Anatolia

This is a Turkish song called "The Lost Songs of Anatolia." Anatolia is the Asian part of Turkey, formerly known as Asia Minor. I don't know much else about this video, or any of its lyrical or visual content for that matter. I found this video by chance on YouTube.
And it is beautiful.

I began tutoring English to a Turkish woman this year, so I hope to learn some more about these cultures.
