'We are surviving without any hope or future.'
“Women are the driving force of the movement because, in Iran, women are not given any rights and cannot do anything. Women have been oppressed in every fight, but we are not afraid anymore. It has made us go with all our strength to overthrow the regime of the mullahs [a term used to describe scholars of Sharia law]. We need our voices to be heard and everyone to recognise our revolution.”
“Since the death of Mahsa, my friends and I all feel like we cannot breathe, and when you cannot breathe, your first instinct is to fight to survive, and that is what we are doing. My family is very strict, and if they knew I was participating in the protests, my father would be angry. My mother understands, so when I go to the protests, she hides it from my father, but she is scared I will be arrested or killed.
“We have no choice. This is our only chance to speak up, or nothing will ever change. It is hard when the whole world is behind us, but our families are not. I can’t do much because I am only 18. I wish I could do more. But just one voice can change everything, even if that one voice is weak, joined with a thousand other voices, it becomes strong.”
"The people of Iran want an end to forty years of executions, suppression, misogyny, widespread poverty and corruption."
