Unveiling Iran's resistance: Meet those taking a stand against the regime

France 24 February 20, 2025

More than two years have gone by since mass "Woman, Life, Freedom" demonstrations erupted in Iran following the death of Kurdish student Mahsa Amini. She was killed by the Iranian morality police for a few strands of hair escaping from her veil. Recently, the death of a 19-year-old University of Tehran student sparked protests and sit-ins at the campus. Our reporter Mortaza Behboudi has been meeting Iranians who are carrying out everyday acts of resistance against the regime. From playing and teaching music, to advocating for LGBT rights, they are boldly taking a stand, whether it's on the streets or in private. For security reasons, the names of those featured in this report have been changed and their faces blurred.
