The Cem is not a ritual, it is worship. A Cemevi is not a cultural center, it is a place of worship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The state cannot define the faith of millions of Alevis through bureaucratic wordplay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We state clearly from here: Cemevis are places of worship. You cannot destroy this reality by erasing it from legislation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No administration has the authority to describe our faith or define our places of worship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cemevis are places of worship. You shall accept this reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We demand equal citizenship.
