Warning: Mentions of death, murder and violent abuse.

The demonstrations and protests that are taking place in Iran are the result of years of abuse suffered by Iranian women. They are one of the most serious challenges to the establishment in years. If you can then please donate to organisations that will assist the protesters. Seek out and uplift Iranian voices on this issue.
