About Me
Hi! My name is Seth Eislund. I am a genocide scholar and researcher of violent religious ideologies. I write about the 2014 Yazidi Genocide in Iraq and Syria, the Holocaust, and the history of religious and genocidal ideologies, among other subjects. I am the founder of the Yazidi Genocide Archive, a digital project that catalogs, translates, and disseminates primary sources about the genocide, as well as oral histories from survivors and interviews with scholarly experts.
In June 2022, I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a B.A. in History, and as a member of Phi Beta Kappa, from Carleton College in Northfield, MN. I intend to continue my studies in graduate school, delving deeper into how religion and ideology have been interpreted to justify the oppression and mass murder of groups of people throughout time.
