Proud is a grave understatement. Maybe the word is honored. To be an Iranian/Persian woman is that - it is an honor and it is a blessing and it is something I am so proud to be ✊🏼 I have never been more moved by the power and bravado of women, than I am now. I have never felt more compassion for the men standing next to women, fighting the same fight. The fight for freedom, equality and autonomy. Those of us living outside of Iran have a responsibility to amplify the voices of those inside. Let’s not allow any silence. Say her name, Jina Mahsa Amini #MAHSAAMINI Say their name. Stand for the women, the men, the children, the unborn. Stand for those in the streets standing brave and courageous in front of extremists, unsure if the next inhale they take will be their last. Stand for those willing to let the face of terror be the last thing they see, instead of the face of a loved one. Stand for humanity ❤️‍🩹 And to my fellow brothers and sisters, hold onto hope. Hold tightly and don’t give up. Take care of your being ❤️‍🔥 #mahsaamini #freeiran #opiran #freeshervin #letshervingo #letzahrago #letelhamgo
