The Iranian Regime Is Going To Execute Rapper Toomaj Salehi For Supporting Protests Of Jina Aminis Murder

The Iranian Regime is going to execute rapper Toomaj Salehi for supporting protests of Jina Amini’s murder by the regime in his songs.

Iranian activist Elica Le Bon says, “Iranians in the diaspora picked up on the fact that the regime tends not to execute people who become known to the international community. We have seen many examples of prisoners that were either released on bail or had their sentences commuted through our “say their names to save their lives” campaign on social media, using hashtags to garner attention for their causes, and even before social media existed, through getting the stories of political prisoners to international media outlets. Once reported on, and once the eyes shift to the regime and the reality of its pending brutality, realizing that the action is not worth the repercussions, we have seen them back down and not execute. For that reason, this is part of an urgent campaign for readers to talk about Toomaj as much as you can, using the hashtag #FreeToomaj or #ToomajSalehi. Every comment makes a difference, and if we were wrong, what did we lose by trying?”

My cat wants you to know that a graphic novel called "Femme, Vie, Liberté", a collective project curated by Marjane Satrapi (best known for "Persepolis") and edited by L'Iconoclaste, has been published in honour of Mahsa Amini and in support of the Iranian uprising.

As far as I know, the book is available in French, Italian and Persian - the latter is available online for free here:

The various graphic novels talk about the history of the Republic of Iran, the life of Iranian people and the events that triggered the protests against the regime.

I hope an English translation will come soon because this is a project that deserves to be shared by as many people as possible.

by and large the iranian people have been standing in solidarity with us. we as jews need to stand in solidarity with the people of iran. they know exactly how bad the IR is. it is the IR, and their proxies, Hezbollah, Hamas, etc, that are the root of the worst of the conflict. in order for there to be peace and self-determination for israelis and palestinians, that depends on the success of the women life freedom movement. free iran from the IR, free #RezaRasaei, #freetoomaj, free us all from radical Islamism.
