Nazanin Boniadi Instagram – On International Women’s Day, we honor the courage of the mothers who turned grief into defiance and refuse to let their children be forgotten.
Two months ago, the Islamic
Republic took the lives of thousands of Iranians for daring to protest for a better future. Forty days later, their loved ones held memorials to honor their memories – in the most courageous ways. Grief turned into rebellion. Mothers danced and clapped on the graves of their fallen children with tears streaming down their face. They sang the very songs their children loved to reclaim their voices in a land where a woman’s song is forbidden. They hosted weddings their children never lived to see, celebrating love amidst loss. These mothers shattered the regime’s forced narratives of martyrdom and sorrow, replacing them with life and defiance.
Now, a bomb has ended the life of the leader who ordered their children’s death. The death of a despot alone will not bring these mothers justice. They deserve their day in court. They need to know that their children did not die in vain. They need to see the changes that will put an end to killings and the regime’s impunity. They need you to stand with them for truth and justice.
