Since September 2022, when Mahsa Amini, an Iranian Kurdish woman was arrested and killed while in the custody of the morality police for alleged
noncompliance with Islamic dress codes, the women of Iran have been leading protests demanding social justice and their basic human rights.
They have been joined by both men and children, and horrifically during the past four months alone, close to 600 Iranians have been murdered at the
hands of government-sanctioned officials, and over 20,000 more have been arrested. Students are among these protests, they have demonstrated through peaceful sit-in strikes and marches. Anti-government protests have become hotspots of abuse and various forms of human rights violations. Organized attacks in the wake of Mahsa’s death targeting women, minority populations, and protestors have been profusely decried across the world.
