Thirtieth gathering on the killing of political prisoners,
In memory and in honor of all the beloved lives that the Islamic Republic took from the people of Iran.
In solidarity with the anniversary of the revolutionary women’s movement, Freedom Life
In the wake of all the blood that has been shed on this land, may this life be our shame, may this bread be our shame, if we do not cry out; we will remember and not forget and not forgive, all the blood that the Islamic Republic has shed on this land. We will not sit and watch, we are gathered and the wave that is pouring like a mountain onto the shore.
From the very first days, the Islamic Republic began to exercise its sovereignty through executions and terror, and solidified its foundations with the blood of thousands of fighting men and women in the 1960s. After that, with ups and downs, it began to massacre subsequent generations, especially in January 1996, the summer of 1997, November 1998, and finally during the revolutionary movement of women for freedom.
From the beginning of its rise to power, the Islamic Republic, led by Khomeini and then Khamenei, imposed religious tyranny and dictatorship on the masses of the Iranian people and society through repression and killing. However, the masses challenged the Islamic Republic and its repressive apparatus generation after generation, and paid a heavy price for it.
The struggles of the masses of the people during the Women’s Freedom Movement were elevated to a new level and, while shaking the authority of tyranny, created a revolutionary situation whose foundations had emerged in November 1998.
Social movements in Iran, whether reform, protest, or revolutionary, while challenging the tyranny and authority of the Islamic Republic, have had a justice-seeking and justice-seeking nature, and ultimately, in the Women’s Freedom Movement, they have developed into subversion and a revolutionary situation.
In the thirtieth gathering on the killing of political prisoners, while honoring the memory of the fighters who lost their lives in prison, on the streets, and in confrontation with the Islamic Republic, and for the freedom and liberation of the oppressed and suffering masses of the people from the shackles of the Islamic Republic’s authoritarian capitalist-religious government, we will examine these uprisings and their justice-seeking nature under the following two headings.
-Social uprisings, their contexts, approaches, and common points with each other and with the 1957 Revolution.
