Women, Life, Freedom
London, 8 October 2022
People gathered to stand with Iranian women after the death of Mahsa Amini, a 22-year-old Kurdish woman who died in police custody in Tehran. She had been arrested by Iran’s morality police for allegedly wearing her headscarf “improperly.” Her death sparked outrage across the world, becoming a symbol of resistance against state violence and control over women’s bodies. What began as a moment of solidarity in London became part of a global call for freedom and equality that still echoes today.
