“It is to show that we are angry.”
Around the world people are uniting in protest against the Iranian government by cutting their hair.
The protests started after the death of Mahsa Amini who was arrested by Iranian so called “morality police” after she was arrested for allegedly wearing her hijab “improperly.”
“Women cutting their hair is an ancient Persian tradition… when the fury is stronger than the power of the oppressor.” tweeted writer and translator Shara Atashi.
“No to the headscarf, no to the turban, yes to freedom and equality” – protesters chanting in the streets of Iran. Die Faust als Zeichen des Protests, die Haare abgeschnitten in Solidarität mit der Revolution im Iran.
Es ist für mich eine sehr emotionale Sache – all die Nachrichten, die Gewalt und das Leiden, die Hilflosigkeit, die Wut. Aber da ist auch Hoffnung – im Mut und der Kraft, der Solidarität, in der Revolution.
Bans off our Bodies - auf der ganzen Welt!

"They need to know that they are not alone. They need to know that what they are asking, which are basic human rights, is something we want to fight alongside them."
