POMAK

In order to educate people you must know very good their culture and their problems from the inside. Pomaks should not feel foreign in their own lands - neither in the Balkan countries nor elsewhere, where they are scattered due to the assimilative attempts over them. Integration into a society does not mean giving up your own culture, beliefs and values!

Pomak people worship Islam as their religion. Being separated among the Balkan countries, they have different nationalities. Having read various historic sources, I tend to believe that Pomak people originate from Thracian tribes, which have chosen Islam voluntarily as their faith. Please try to read only independent literature on the topic, because there exists lots of propaganda in respect of the history of Pomaks.
