Iranian women are bravely continuing their struggle to express their anger and frustration, despite a government crackdown.
Demonstrators Sunday carried signs pointing to articles in the Iranian Constitution that guarantee the right to peaceful protest. Activists said the arrests were made to preempt another gathering they had planned for Thursday. “They are afraid of the women’s movement, because there are some links between them and journalists, nongovernmental organizations, and they cooperate with [foreign] NGOs,” says Isa Saharkhiz, a former editor and reformist.
