Women in Iran are leading an unprecedented movement for human rights. Protests have broken out across the country following the death of 22-year old Mahsa Amini, who was arrested by the Islamic Republic’s morality police for allegedly violating the country’s strict dress code for women. As a proud Iranian-American, Neagheen comes to BFBA to talk about what’s happening in Iran, why it’s so important, and how to show solidarity with the freedom fighters.
Woman. Life. Freedom. #mahsaamini #iranprotests

Two most important things each of us can do to support freedom fighters in Iran:
1) Keep coverage of their protests alive! Repost and reshare stories using the hashtags #MahsaAmini and #IranProtests.
2) Help Iranians bypass internet censorship by downloading the Snowflake extension. Read more here: https://snowflake.torproject.org/
