🚨In Iran, a rapper faces death for daring to speak out.

Toomaj Salehi's crime? Exposing oppressive state policies through his music. 🎤

We cannot stay silent. We must demand his release and defend free speech and dissent. 🗣️✊

Join the fight for justice. Share his story, and call on the Islamic Republic of #Iran to #FreeToomaj

For Shervin, for Toomaj, for Fereydoon Farokhzad, for all the artists being killed, tortured, or imprisoned by the Islamic Regime.

Incredible. Acclaimed Iranian filmmaker #JafarPqnahi who went on hunger strike on Wed, has been temporarily released from Evin prison in Tehran today. In 2010 he was banned from working, traveling abroad & talking to the media for 20 years. Cruel & unjust. #MahsaAmini #مهسا_امینی

Imagine being killed for wanting the freedom to wear what you want.

Imagine being killed for wanting separation of church & state.

Imagine being killed for wanting human rights.

This is what’s happening in Iran under the theocratic, murderous Islamic Regime.

Keep sharing

Incredible support, thanks to @LaTourEiffel, for displaying “Woman, Life, Freedom” and calling for #StopExecutionsInIran.

The Islamic Regime in Iran has killed 525 Iranians, that we know of, since the start of the current revolution in September 2022.

70 have been children.

That’s an average of 4 people killed per day for wanting freedom.

Iran, & the world, will be safer when this regime dies.

[Chelsea Hart ۴۰۳۰ @chelseahartisme]

The international community must immediately put the IRGC on the terrorist list.

And any armed forces who wish to join the Iranian people are welcomed.

“From the otherworldly courage of young Iranians rising up, to the ever persevering women’s movement of Afghanistan, we are reminded in no uncertain terms that the freedom to dream is not simply a human luxury but rather a human need that must be fought and sacrificed for.”

[MazJobrani @MazJobrani]

The brutal Islamic Republic continues to execute its prisoners from the recent protests. Please take a minute to make a similar sign and post to your socials. We need to pressure our leaders to pressure the Islamic republic to #StopExecutionsInIran #StopExecutionInIran

[Nazanin Boniadi @NazaninBoniadi]

January 8 we will take to the streets wherever we may be in the world, in honour of the innocent lives lost 3 yrs ago when the Islamic Republic shot down flight #PS752, for #MohammadMehdiKarami, #MohammadHosseini, #MahsaAmini & all those the regime has murdered.

The year 2022 was a glorious year of solidarity for Iranians of every belief, language and orientation.

With organization and solidarity, 2023 will be the year of victory for the Iranian nation. The year of freedom and justice in Iran.

Thinking of the children of Iran. Seeing the world through the eyes of children has taught me that our similarities outweigh our differences,that we should trade in judgement for curiosity & that compassion & kindness are often found most among those who’ve experienced them least

[Omid Memarian @Omid_M]

Remembering #ElahehMohammadi, a remarkable journalist in Iran who has been in prison for the last 92 days. When awarded for her excellent reports on women, she spoke about “censorship” & “redlines. Brave. Release her. #MahsaAmini #مهسا_امینی #الهه_محمدی

[Nazanin Boniadi @NazaninBoniadi]

While much of the world is on Christmas break, the Islamic Republic is using our absence to murder Iranians in the dark.

Today, #EliasRaisi & #AyoubRigi were murdered & #MohammadGhobadlou is in imminent danger.

We need a MAXIMUM SUPPORT CAMPAIGN for the Iranian people NOW!

[Omid Memarian @Omid_M]

Urgent. The execution sentence of #Mohammad_Ghobadlou, 22, has been approved by Iran’s Supreme Court & it could be carried out at any moment, according to @amnesty. @UN_HRC & @UNHumanRights, please do what you can to stop this. #MahsaAmini #مهسا_امینی #محمد_قبادلو #IranRevoIution

[Omid Memarian @Omid_M]

Timely report: In 5 minutes, @CNN raises the cases of dozens of protesters in Iran sentenced to execution, giving voice to some of their families & reflecting their pleas for justice. Thanks, @jaketapper & @nimaelbagir. #MahsaAmini #مهسا_امینی #اعدام_نکنید

14 yr old Massoomeh identified on school cameras not wearing a hijab was detained then dropped at the hospital with severe vaginal tears and died. Her mother wanted to go public and is now missing. #IranRevoIution2022 https://t.co/Pj5zztE4Io @melaniejoly @JustinTrudeau

Today at the final of the World Cup, I only hope the players on the field and the whole world remembers that there’s a man and fellow footballer called Amir Nasr, on death row, only for speaking in favor of Women’s rights.

This is the third month of weekly protests in Zahedan (southeast Iran). Protestors denounce @khamenei_ir and the bassij.
