women had had enough of the huge job to see says it's very, very important. the headscarf is a symbol of this nomic government. to vicki, the schools became the side of protest. young people rose up and then this deeply patriarchal society, another form of revolution has been taking place. women are receiving strong solidarity from man coordinate to meet the entire rainy and society has filled the consequences of suppressing freedoms which corruption, publishing, and discrimination to guard uranium pop star, media ra. he is one of the minis was paid dearly for supporting the women. he dedicated this song to them in august 2023. it encourages women to take off their head scarves. the machine declared his actions illegal, and he was arrested the,

the state responded to the protests with extreme violence. more than 20000 people had been arrested. so far, dex sentences had been carried out. more than 2000 school girls were poisoned, many suspect the regime. but there have been no conclusive investigations. the 16 year old me kind of shuck around me was abducted at a demo engine present. later her body was found with the marks of tortures. the machine declared a suicide. since the beginning of the result, people all over the world have students solidarity with the radium women. they're also demanding an end to the arabian dictatorship. for freedom, international female celebrities and other women,

that's part of their hair and post it. the images online. hair is political, says a rainy and must see a lead new judge. for years, she's been campaigning, an exile for feminist issues. i ask women why that they want to share their pictures with me. so the moment of freedom with me, i was bombarded by pictures from them and inside the wrong being conveyed so i created my associates freedom page on facebook and instagram, and it's all about freedom. it's own about dignity. it's all about choice for nearly 90 years, raining and women's hair has been the subject of political and religious battles. the headstones no head storage.

it's always been up to men to make this decision for women without their se restaurant shop. former shaw of a run wanted to use educational reforms and repression to modernize these land the country. in 1936, he bands women from wearing head scarves for him, it was a symbol that went against his idea of progress. however, in 1941 resign, sean was forced to abdicate his son assumed power and continued to push ahead with modernization. under mohammed, where's the apostle of the women were given a chance to break away from traditional rules and did 1963. they were given the right to vote, that under the previous regime we had several freedoms and we were allowed to join in with new aspects of society. the new sean once again allowed women to wear the headscarf in public. but he went on to establish a fruitful dictatorship,

progressive and left wing forces opposed to him. as did the islamist revolution followed and the shawn was deposed. the the islamists took power. i had to so many declared the heat job, compulsory for women. going out wearing makeup without the job is like going out and make it and it is not in keeping with a woman's position by doing so. they turned themselves into goals. left as to like the islamist fought against the shot were in disbelief. i worked in the newspaper and she dawes and uh, be heard in or they do adults, we have to have your full still have retail up from tomorrow. the girl that had a very short skirt and one of my friends just took here, had a skirt. i'm call the and the could see as good. so we just

lost a lot, but we didn't believe that the models were serious. many women were outraged. they took to the streets and protest. left us saw this as the big trail of their revolution. like now he'd pass on the surface dining the went on to make documentary the left space of the many, many more than that islam is, but they, they're more organized than viva. does not mean that's why they belong when they did the revolution against the shaw. the just wanted just is to be just be wanted democracy. but what we get was 1000 times more stun the show staging. regime of terror followed over the coming years. many who were involved in politics were driven into exile.

like the family of journalist and author killed us a heavy. she writes about iran from germany and about the meaning of the compulsory hitch off the launch because this form of control is very important. just have them to look into this where oppression is one of the pin that's if the machine because it puts half of the population under its control and creates a platform to build that ideal naji. i'm telling you that you do here how these lumnick republics of your run reliance on maintaining power over women. their rights are systematically removed and a woman is only worth half as much as a man literally, or a woman's voice only counts for half in court. if a woman dies in an accident, the family receives half the compensation as though women weren't full human beings . long the most important rock we lost was our identity. now identity as human

beings, women are prohibited from doing so many things like singing or dancing, or wearing what they want. and everything is sexualized. sort of ready to use the huge jump motion forced from an interest to them on this as a way of looking at the female body. that's a place of citizen. and by that it means that a woman's body of the woman's head and a woman's being all humiliated on. but how does that along with this humiliation? men are also humiliated. bravo! and asking my god himself 6, why the task x you want to utilize that the course of my to think is a free woman has complete freedom to decide on his sexuality and come she definitely it's on her own whether to have sex and town and whether she wants children or not easy, honestly, extreme is the only deal logy aims to control or not, and do extend assessment and you will be comfortable in this form of control over

women is essential to be islam is pushing the columns and 5, i mean, how far more powerful the men, and i think that creates the space perfect. and so for us, women, if they want to build a state one by violence, a terrorist, they divide because of women of free and want to exercise the freedom inside of these guys. come and keep doing what they want and come to the to finish the civil . so they lock women up. they carry a mass arrest in prison. women experience 1st hand just how cruel the government's display of power can get. now he partial and surface donnie brought together former prisoners to make a documentary film. what happened to them after they were arrested the name of the check engine portion of the very nice you can do this many times this home that the pushed out exactly how many cheese and i remember this is you know, that missed you know, that is equal to that, if she,

judy, me, do now hold on shop places, you know, the building that little enough look at them tried to start. ha, ha, ha ha. shed that say they could, the 70 or them is that the should many, you'd have me speaking. that's the problem with shasta money better than most editorials. and this one, i mean, one of the women featured in film wrote a book about her 9 years in prison and the torture she experienced. there. you and you have a great news on 9 years of prison position and us and seeing how people were just executed on a well. and he should organ and 0 but autonomy such brutal tort. chester again and brutal re education process to see if he wants further testing the machine. people need to know how kind of zoning mission was best here to someone's stuff to does he rock into my mouth and someone started putting my feet

involuntarily. i withdrew my legs and screamed to scream. that was like an animal are done. i don't remember anything. stopping myself, most of what executions, torture and rape became political tools that are still used today. or monday. somebody know, p, she or anybody have any one imprisoned for political reasons. first goes into solitary confinement with the c o. c. cut them off from the outside world to get me to a cuba. or if it's just they don't have the right to a lawyer to the center of my tutor. and they tortured until they testify against themselves and got it. and they asked me to call on time got a report from protests that began in 2022. we're not the 1st

for decades people had been taken to the streets hoping for democracy, contain huge protests broke out in 2009. it was our tractor trailer and for a few weeks we had the feeling of being as close to our target as never before. they were protesting must mood, us medina, todd's ultra conservative administration, accusing them of electro fraud. the machine's response was fruitful. people wish charlton tortured or disappeared without a trace. the so called green movement failed. the protest as was focusing on one particular issue, up in 2009. it was a gains to vote. rigging lower miss. and the cool of the protest is at the time was what happened to my thought and the, the shorter dream would get value. my cool,

kind of like in 2009 protest, a nice basically within the system demonstrate to set that up in an actual fraud and that votes weren't counted, but they weren't demanding for the system to be taken down. and upon the surface being was part of the next waves of protests didn't call the system itself into question either in 2019, for instance, it was the increase in gas prices. and once again, the government violently crack down on the demonstrations the but with the protests that started in 2022, there is more at stake. demonstrators are campaigning to toppled the whole regime. they want for decades worth of crimes to be atoned for. this time is not the economy is not, unemployment is not, water. is the woman the, this revolutionary movement is more radical than all the others before. and it's

still going strong with women at the health of the family. this is the 1st feminist revolution in the world, then the outcome pain is woman life freedom. well, that's the only possible in a democratic secular system. let's say. ok. since the mass protests began in 2022, women have kept up the fight. there was this thing in new ways and standing up for their beliefs, breaking the rules, showing their hair, making music, and dancing. women are losing their fear, even though they face increasingly draconian punishments. somebody like you said, the people going back to the way they want. because that's too much hate for the regime that's actually off to how much violence they've accessed. always in the

past month. divide ok and tossed. yeah. that's yeah, i absolutely cannot imagine people going back from ms. absolutely false to about especially to look in shadow. yes, it shows that everything seems to demonstrate that these women have no intention of giving up the testing for them that they continuing their resistance. i'm in pretty full and of course, you know, it's only me, in my opinion, this regime will be toppled, but it may take some time because i want to uh, well connect to the to say no matter how long it takes it rainy and women are showing determination, my, i am proud if you will, and i know that you will succeed and that will do this and won't let me. and i'm to myself of each women life freedom. a bronze feminist revolution continues. the

non consensual, more women are falling victim to artificial intelligence, which is being abused by anonymous perpetrators to create deceptively real pornography know the thing and it's become a nightmare for thomas when in that a 15 minute d. w. seeing through diarrhea, recess jungle between columbia and thousands of people
