Doing some doodles before my friends arrive, creating the ultimate over-the-top performers costume for my old drow bard, Mahsa. I think the star confetti inside the big sleeves would be enchanted with Featherfall so they drift about like a snowglobe.

Mahsa Amini

Persian wind was gently chilling the air,that surrounds the so-called Azadi square,though in Iran no one would dare,I started feeling the cold on my hair. The square reminds freedom for all,but for women, apart it falls,we are for their masculine control,apart from their guidance patrol. The police came from both sides either,screening on me for what they bother,showed any signs of respect…

Update below original post

The Iranian Regime is going to execute rapper Toomaj Salehi for supporting protests of Jina Amini’s murder by the regime in his songs.

Iranian activist Elica Le Bon says, “Iranians in the diaspora picked up on the fact that the regime tends not to execute people who become known to the international community. We have seen many examples of prisoners that were either released on bail or had their sentences commuted through our “say their names to save their lives” campaign on social media, using hashtags to garner attention for their causes, and even before social media existed, through getting the stories of political prisoners to international media outlets. Once reported on, and once the eyes shift to the regime and the reality of its pending brutality, realizing that the action is not worth the repercussions, we have seen them back down and not execute. For that reason, this is part of an urgent campaign for readers to talk about Toomaj as much as you can, using the hashtag #FreeToomaj or #ToomajSalehi. Every comment makes a difference, and if we were wrong, what did we lose by trying?”

Update: Hey everyone! Toomaj Salehi’s death sentence was overturned! The most recent article I could find says he is still in jail though. Please keep sharing, because people to need to understand what’s happening. According to Amnesty International, Iran carried out 74% of the world’s executions in 2023, not including executions from China since they don’t release those numbers. The execution rate is growing higher with 67 executions in June alone, 48 of which were ethnic minorities despite all together being only 40% of the population. Their crimes are protesting the government for murdering women. Please keep sharing, because while there are many injustices happening far away that can’t be stopped by posting, the Say Their Names to Save Their Lives Movement works.

Las fuerzas de seguridad de Irán reprimen las protestas un año después de la muerte de Mahsa Amini

Las fuerzas de seguridad iraníes reprimieron las protestas en las zonas kurdas del país el sábado y detuvieron brevemente al padre de Mahsa Amini, un año después de que la muerte de la joven bajo custodia desencadenara algunos de los peores disturbios políticos en cuatro décadas.

Los Guardias Revolucionarios detuvieron a un ciudadano con doble nacionalidad sospechoso de "intentar organizar disturbios y sabotajes", informó la agencia oficial de noticias IRNA, uno de varios arrestos de "contrarrevolucionarios" y "terroristas".

Al caer la noche del sábado, una fuerte presencia de fuerzas de seguridad en las zonas mayoritariamente kurdas de Irán parecía haber disuadido manifestaciones de protesta a gran escala, pero grupos de derechos humanos informaron de enfrentamientos esporádicos en varias zonas del país.

La muerte de Mahsa Amini, una mujer kurda de 22 años arrestada por la policía moral el año pasado por supuestamente violar los códigos de vestimenta obligatorios, desencadenó meses de algunas de las mayores protestas contra el gobierno clerical chiíta de la República Islámica jamás vistas y atrajo la atención internacional. condenación.

A pesar de la fuerte presencia de seguridad el sábado, hubo indicios de acciones de protesta en varios puntos del país. Videos publicados en las redes sociales mostraban a personas reunidas en una avenida principal de la capital, Teherán, animando a una joven pareja que protestaba mientras los conductores tocaban las bocinas de sus autos en señal de apoyo.

IRNA informó que el fuego envolvió el pabellón de mujeres de la prisión de Qarchak en la provincia de Teherán antes de ser extinguido después de que los convictos en espera de ejecución prendieron fuego a sus ropas. Dijo que no hubo víctimas.

La Red de Derechos Humanos del Kurdistán, que dijo que el incidente estaba relacionado con las protestas, dijo que fuerzas especiales entraron en la sala, golpearon a las mujeres y dispararon perdigones.

En otro incidente, el grupo de derechos humanos Hengaw dijo que las fuerzas de seguridad abrieron fuego en la ciudad kurda de Mahabad, hiriendo al menos a una persona. También dijo que varias personas resultaron heridas en la ciudad de Kermanshah, pero no hubo confirmación oficial de ninguno de los incidentes.

En Saqez, la ciudad natal de Amini, en el noroeste de Irán, la agencia de noticias semioficial Fars informó que la policía había herido gravemente con una pistola de perdigones a un hombre que "ignoró una advertencia policial". Dijo que el hombre estaba en una sala de cuidados intensivos después de ser sometido a una operación, pero no proporcionó más detalles.

Las publicaciones en las redes sociales también mostraban imágenes de residentes de ciudades como Teherán gritando consignas contra el líder supremo, el ayatolá Ali Jamenei, como "¡Muerte al dictador!" así como protestas en zonas como Gohardasht, en la ciudad de Karaj al oeste de Teherán, y en Mashhad en el noreste.

Un vídeo publicado en las redes sociales mostraba a un grupo de manifestantes en Gohardasht cantando "Somos una gran nación y recuperaremos Irán", mientras los conductores tocaban las bocinas y gritaban aliento. Reuters no pudo autenticar de inmediato el video.

En las manifestaciones que siguieron a la muerte de Amini, más de 500 personas, entre ellas 71 menores, murieron, cientos resultaron heridas y miles fueron arrestadas, dijeron grupos de derechos humanos. Irán llevó a cabo siete ejecuciones relacionadas con los disturbios.

El sábado, se advirtió al padre de Mahsa, Amjad Amini, que no celebrara el aniversario de la muerte de su hija antes de ser liberado, dijo la Red de Derechos Humanos del Kurdistán, y la familia no pudo realizar una vigilia planificada junto a su tumba.

IRNA negó en un informe que Amjad Amini hubiera sido arrestado, pero no dijo si fue detenido brevemente o advertido.

Anteriormente, las redes sociales y los informes de grupos de derechos humanos hablaban de fuerzas de seguridad tomando posiciones alrededor de la casa de Amini en Saqez, en el oeste de Irán.

'MOVIMIENTO HISTÓRICO'

La represión de las protestas se produjo cuando la condena del organismo de control nuclear de las Naciones Unidas a la decisión de Teherán de excluir a varios inspectores del país subrayó el aislamiento de Irán de Occidente.

En Washington, cientos de manifestantes se reunieron en un parque frente a la Casa Blanca con retratos de Amini. Los oradores encabezaron a la multitud con cánticos de "Di su nombre… Mahsa Amini", y también recitaron "¡Somos la revolución" y "¡Derechos humanos para Irán!".

En una declaración del viernes, el presidente de Estados Unidos, Joe Biden, dijo: "La historia de Mahsa no terminó con su brutal muerte. Ella inspiró un movimiento histórico - Mujer, Vida, Libertad - que ha impactado a Irán e influido en personas de todo el mundo".

Gran Bretaña impuso el viernes sanciones a cuatro funcionarios iraníes y Estados Unidos dijo que estaba sancionando a más de dos docenas de personas y entidades relacionadas con la "represión violenta" de las protestas por parte de Irán.

Sin nombrar a Biden, el portavoz del Ministerio de Asuntos Exteriores de Irán, Nasser Kanaani, calificó de "dobles raseros y mentiras" las expresiones occidentales de apoyo a los derechos de las mujeres en Irán.

Los medios estatales también descartaron informes de disturbios y huelgas en varias ciudades de la región del Kurdistán iraní. IRNA dijo que Saqez estaba "completamente tranquilo" y que los llamados a ataques en las zonas kurdas habían fracasado debido a "la vigilancia de la gente y la presencia de fuerzas militares y de seguridad".

La agencia citó a un funcionario de la provincia de Kurdistán diciendo: "Varios agentes afiliados a grupos contrarrevolucionarios que habían planeado crear caos y preparar material para los medios fueron arrestados en las primeras horas de esta mañana".

En un informe del mes pasado, Amnistía Internacional dijo que las autoridades iraníes "han estado sometiendo a las familias de las víctimas a arrestos y detenciones arbitrarias, imponiendo restricciones crueles a las reuniones pacíficas en las tumbas y destruyendo las lápidas de las víctimas".

Muchos periodistas, abogados, activistas, estudiantes, académicos, artistas, figuras públicas y miembros de minorías étnicas acusados de tener vínculos con la ola de protestas, así como familiares de manifestantes muertos en los disturbios, han sido arrestados, citados, amenazados o despedidos de sus puestos de trabajo. en las últimas semanas, según grupos de derechos humanos iraníes y occidentales.

El diario iraní Etemad informó en agosto que el abogado de la familia de Amini también enfrentaba cargos de "propaganda contra el sistema". Si es declarado culpable, Saleh Nikbakht se enfrenta a una pena de cárcel de entre uno y tres años.

By the way. While many people are now cheering for Iran for attacking Israel, people who like to think of themselves as a spokesperson for justice. Do you still remember Mahsa Amini? Or any of the other countless women in Iran killed, or living in fear, or fighting for freedom? Do you all have short memory, or do you just refuse to acknowledge who it is you're supporting as long as they keep killing Jewish people?

This is a rhetorical question. I do not want an answer. I want you to take a hard look in the mirror and think about what you're doing.

Today marks one year anniversary of 2022 Iranian uprising against the oppressive Islamic Republic regime. An uprising that started with the brutal murder of a young kurd woman, Mahsa Jina Amini, for "inappropriate hijab".

For the past couple of weeks, the regime has prepared their forces to beat down any new movement immediately. The streets of Tehran and many other cities are lined with anti riot forces and police cars. In Saqez, the home city of Amini family, they've stationed the army around the city to massacre people in case they try to start another wave of protest. Mahsa's father has been arrested alongside some family members of other last year uprising martyrs.

There has been small protesting gatherings in Iran in the last two days, there has already been some arrests and violent crackdowns on protesters. I hear people chanting from my neighborhood homes. The government would commit as many bloodbaths as it takes to secure their position, but you can't beat people into obedience when they hate you from the bottom of their hearts.

update on Toomaj Salehi, the Iranian rapper who supported the protests in '22 and '23. His lawyer has told the press Salehi has been sentenced to death today. There's still the possibility to appeal, which they will. However, it's not an anomaly. More protesters have been sentenced to death. (source)

saying F U to the regime again and again: a quick update on women vs IR regime

Famous Iranian actresses have been appearing in public without a mandatory hijab. This has been happening since the beginning of the protests. Last month, Kiumars Pourahmad, a well known Iranian screenwriter and director, committed suicide. He had a history of criticizing the regime's political decisions. At his funeral, some of the famous actresses attended without mandatory hijab.

You can see Fateme Motamedarya, Katayoun Riyahi, and Golab Adineh in these pictures from the funeral. Ms. Riyahi was one of the first celebrities who took her hijab off at the start of the Jina (Mahsa) Amini protest and for that she's been the target of IRGC harassment and has been to court.

Last week, in the ceremony of screening of the final episode of Lion's Skin (a persian crime show), actress Pantea Bahram participated without hijab. The manager of Tehran’s Lotus Cinema, where the ceremony was held, was fired for letting her attend without hijab.

Other than prosecution, the regime has blocked these celebrities' bank accounts. Basij and IRGC members have also attacked and harassed these women online and in real life.

Students on university campuses take off their hijabs. There's an installed version of morality police in universities that monitor students' styles. Female students must wear "appropriate" hijab and male students must wear "manly" clothes (one of my guy friends once was asked to go back home and change his shoes because they were red casual loafers. Apparently that's gay!). When you enroll in Iranian universities, the first thing you do is to go to the security office and sign an agreement that says you promise to follow the Islamic dress code. There are posters all over the campus that says things like "hijab is security" "respect the islamic hijab" and "not wearing appropriate hijab (tight short clothes, too much hair, makeup, etc) would result in legal action". So not wearing hijab on campus, where a lot of security cameras are installed and it's easy to identify you, is a big deal.

The regime's response to students taking off their hijabs is sending threatening messages to students' phones and increasing the security people. At the entrance of Universities, these security forces check people's clothes and if it's not proper they won't let you in. Some of the students wear the hijab at the entrance and take it off after they're in. They have warned our professors to not let non hijabi students sit in classes too.

One of my favorite trends in Iran now is when guys wear our hijab. These pictures are from universities. Guys wearing hijab make the security mad. This is a great act of solidarity with women against the obligatory hijab.

Some men have been doing either this or wearing shorts in public. The former is to ridicule the obligatory dress code and the latter is because wearing shorts in public is forbidden for guys too.

And women not wearing hijab in general. Though hijab is not our only issue, we want a whole new political system, one that is not theocratic or terroristic, hijab is something the regime won't back down from because it's one of their strongest oppressing tools. If they let us win the fight against obligatory hijab, I quote from a regime head, "people keep demanding more changes"!

So to put people against people to enforce the hijab law again, the regime has closed down many businesses (hotels, cafes, malls, bookstores, etc) for welcoming non hijabi female costumers. They have also warned taxi and bus drivers to not let non hijabi women in their vehicles.

Although not everyone is disobeying the hijab law (some believe in hijab, some don't want to pay the price), the number of women who take the risk and don't wear hijab in Tehran and many other cities is high enough that you feel encouraged to keep doing it.
