Since the U.S. and Israel launched their joint assault on the Islamic Republic of Iran, feminist voices in the “Zan, Zendegi, Azadi” movement (or the “Woman, Life, Freedom” movement) have been diverse, with contradictory and dispersed reactions to war, foreign intervention, and even the future of the movement itself.
On March 25, the Islamic Republic of Iran began its four-year term as a new member of the United Nations’ Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) — “the principal global intergovernmental body dedicated to promoting gender equality and women’s empowerment” — after being elected by secret ballot last year.
A new movement has sparked public discourse among Iranian women as they take to social media with their own #MeTooIran moments.
