They do not proselytize, they do not know hate preachers, and they do not interpret God according to their own wishes: Yezidism is one of the oldest religions in humanity and a pacifist folk religion. However, the fateful history of this religious community tells a different story. For more than 1,400 years, Yezidis have suffered in their homeland from systematic forced Islamization, massacres, genocides, and punitive expeditions. Since August 2014, they have been beheaded, enslaved, and raped by ISIS terrorists in front of the eyes of the world. Cultural treasures and humanity's historical heritage are being destroyed forever. Given that there are now over 100,000 Yezidis living in Germany, it is astonishing that this religious group and the problems arising from their diaspora have so far received insufficient attention in academic research.
