The #OurStoryIsOne campaign commemorates the execution of 10 Baha’i women and brings together Iranians of all faiths and backgrounds who are standing up for justice as they have all faced similar battles in their path towards equality.
Today marks 40 years since 10 Bahá'í women were hanged for refusing to renounce their beliefs in a faith that promotes the principles of gender equality. Join the two-hour event starting at 5:30 GMT tonight by posting using #OurStoryIsOne
