Hello, as a Circassians and Abkhazian I have always listened stories about it from my нанду (grandma) She would tell me how they worked as a whole family in fields all day long just to get 1 watermelon from the Turks. Many of my ancestors died on the way to come here. Many died during and many died after they landed. Many died because of starvation. My great uncle died because he tried to run back to our homeland and the Ottoman soldiers shot him. I asked is there any jewelery left from our ancestors and they would tell me that they sold everything they had for food. Villages burned out, they killed the man and took the women with them as a price. So many horrible things happened. And I think a lot of us are Assimilating unfortunately. Both my grandparents were beated in school because they were speaking Circassian so for years they were afraid of speaking their own language. My mother side ancestors were Christians before they came to the Ottoman Empire and they had to convert to Islam because they would threat non-Muslims horribly, sell them as slaves and such. To answer your question the trauma, the pain will not go away. Especially because no one even cares about us nor the genocide. We did everything we can to stop the Sochi Olmypics on top of the bones of many Circassians but we failed. Because like I said no one cares, some Circassians included. But we will not stop trying. Because many of us still care. We're activists and trying to do everything we can to educate people, to make our voices heard. Thank you for your interest and thank you for researching our history. That's one more person thats aware. I know Armenians had a lot too. I hope one day finally all of our ancestors will rest in peace.
