Iranian women — no Hijab — sing the Farsi version of Bella Ciao, the anti-fascist anthem of the Italian resistance during WW II

If you're a professor or a student in STEM in a Western country, you probably know someone from the Sharif University of Technology in Iran. They might have be your students, peers, or friends. That university is now under attack by the Islamic Republic. 🧵(1/16) #MahsaAmini

My alma mater, Sharif University, is now a bloody war zone where my classmates are being beaten and arrested. The least all institutions can do is to speak up and condemn this brutal attack against Iranian students! #دانشگاه_شریف #مهسا_امینی

۲۱. بدون که تنها نیستی! همه‌مون باهمیم. :) این یه درد جمعیه. این یه خشم جمعیه‌. این یه اعتراض، قیام، جنبش، و انقلاب جمعیه. و میلیون‌ها آدم ویرچوالی دست در دست همیم. مرسی که هستی. من می‌بینمت و بهت از همینجا می‌گم مرسی از بودنت در کنار همه ما. مرسی که با مایی! ❤️ #مهسا_امینی

My alma mater #SharifUniversity has been attacked & under siege by Iran’s IRGC forces. Students (peacefully protesting the killing of #MahsaAmini) are beaten, arrested & shot at. Plz be our voice & don't let this massacre happen! #مهسا_امینی #دانشگاه_شریف #SharifUniversity

Thank you, Nazanin Boniadi, for coming to the United Nations to support peaceful protesters across Iran. Your activism is an inspiration to so many, including me.

RT: We've never been so united: ~$150k was donated in less than 4 days. $70k after consulting the bank (& CRA) is transferred. Medicines were delivered to mobile hospitals in Kurdish cities.#MahsaAmini #IranRevoIution2022 #ژینا_ئەمینی #ژینا_امینی #زن_زندگی_آزادی #ژن_ژیان_ئازادی

می‌گن سخت گرفتیم به «تیم ملی» و فرصت رو از دست دادیم. من گمان نمی‌کنم. چیزی که جرقه‌ی این جنبش رو زد خستگی بود، از دروغ، از سر خم کردن و کوتاه اومدن برای نگه‌داشتن حداقل‌ها و در نهایت همون حداقل‌ها رو هم از دست دادن. چنین جنبشی نباید هم کرنش و خوش‌رقصی رو نادیده بگیره.

نه خشم و کین و درد و گریه خامُش‌اش کند نه جور روزگار سرد جوشش‌اش کند

Another innocent, brave and beautiful young man executed by the Islamic Republic. They called his parents at 7am telling them that their son was executed at dawn, and his body buried by the executioners.

The Iranian people have made themselves clear: They want freedom and democracy. Not dictatorship and theocracy. Join me in standing with protestors calling for freedom. Add your name to Freedom House’s #IranSolidarity petition: change.org/IranSolidarity

Incredible! #ShervinHajipour wins the best "Social Change" song at Recording Academy / GRAMMYs (#GRAMMYs) for “Baraye," a song that captured the hearts of millions in Iran and around the world. #MahsaAmini #مهسا_امینی #شروین_حاجی‌پور

Join us to work on this exciting project!

We had a very good panel discussion today at @uOttawaCIPS with Hamed Esmaeilion and Nazanin Boniadi on the future of the Alliance for Democracy and Freedom in Iran, with a discussion on the next steps for the opposition.

Nice people and super interesting discussions! Thanks to Agostina Calabrese 🦋 for organizing this meetup!

I will be presenting preliminary findings on the link between social media activity using 5 months of the entire Persian Twitter (750mil tweets) and on-the-ground dynamics—unveiling insights into street-level traffic, protest frequency, arrests and executions. #WomanLifeFreedom
