Campus Rally for IRAN
November 30, 2022, 5pm, Room 1130 STEM Building
Iranian student association (ISA) is holding an event on November 30th, from 5 to 6:30 PM in room 1130, STEM building in support and solidarity with the people of Iran.Peaceful protests for the Woman, Life, Freedom movement have been going on in Iran and around the world over the past two months. More than 400 people including children have been killed and more than 15,000 of those protesters have been arrested, facing death penalty by the Islamic Republic dictatorship in Iran. Women’s right activists and feminists have been the initiators for this movement, many of which were arrested in the very beginning of the protests.As Mona Eltahawy, the Egyptian-American feminist-activists puts: “The feminist revolution in Iran will free everyone, because it is intersectional; it will free not only the cis-gender heterosexual abled body conservative men, but also, marginalized ethnic groups in Kurdistan and Baluchistan, trans people and queer community, and disabled bodies/people with disabilities.”
