Woman, Life, Freedom & the Struggle against Theocracy & War in Iran
Saturday, April 18 at 11 am Pacific Time/2:00 p.m. Eastern
Hear Iranian feminist Maryam Namazie speak about feminist struggle in Iran & the need to oppose BOTH imperialist war & Iranian theocracy
SPEAKERS:
MARYAM NAMAZIE is a multiple award-winning Iranian-born UK-based activist and writer who has long opposed the Islamic regime and political Islam from a Left perspective. She has organized internationally for women’s rights, asylum seekers, and freedom of expression, including through the Council of Ex-Muslims of Britain and One Law for All. In her work on Iran, she consistently argues that the central struggle is a popular uprising against theocratic rule, not a proxy conflict between states, and has been equally critical of war, insisting that both mi
litarism and the regime undermine the fight for woman, life, freedom.
ANN MENASCHE is a founding member and co-coordinator of Feminists in Struggle, a civil rights lawyer, lesbian, and lifelong radical feminist and socialist. She has spent much of her life organizing against imperialist war and for women’s liberation. She has found inspiration from the woman, life, freedom movement in Iran, and those who speak out for peace, whether in Israel, Europe or the United States.
FORUM WILL TAKE PLACE ON ZOOM AND IS WOMEN-ONLY.
