We are on the one-year anniversary of the women\u2019s freedom marches in Iran.<\/p>\n

Jina Mahsa Amini\u2019s death at the hands of Iran\u2019s Morality Police on 16th of September, 2022 sparked widespread protests across the country. Women took to the streets, uncovering their hair, burning headscarves and chanting \u201cWoman Life Freedom\u2019 \u2014\u00a0\u2018Zan Zendegi Azadi\u201d<\/em>\u00a0in Persian and \u201cJin J\u00eeyan Azad\u00ee\u201d<\/em>\u00a0in Kurdish \u2014 in mass demonstrations. An explosion of creative resistance followed as art and photography shared online went viral and people around the world saw what was really going on in Iran.<\/p>\n

Woman Life Freedom<\/em>\u00a0captures this historic moment in artwork and first-person accounts. This striking collection goes behind the scenes at forbidden fashion shows; records the sound of dissent in Iran where it is illegal for women to sing unaccompanied in public; and walks the streets of Tehran with \u2018The Smarties\u2019 \u2014 Gen Z women who colour and show their hair in defiance of the authorities, despite the potentially devastating consequences. Extolling the power of art, writing and body politics \u2014 both female and queer \u2014 this collection is a universal rallying call and a celebration of the women the regime has tried and failed to silence.<\/p>\n

Published by\u00a0Saqi Books<\/a>, London. We meet the editor, Malu Halasa, to talk about the book online, on Sunday, Feb. 25 at 1 pm Eastern\/19:00 CET.<\/p>\n
