:Gozareshgaran Appeal call
On the occasion of the International Women’s Day, with all of our strength, we will support the 3-day rally of the campaign to fight violence against women
Concurrent with the 40th Anniversary of “Five-Day Women’s uprising on March 8, 1979, against Compulsory hijab in Iran, Join the Women’s Campaign rally and protest in three countries Germany (Hamburg), Netherland (Den hag) and Belgium (Brussels) on 6th, 7th and 8th March 2019.
Iranian Women with 40 years of struggle and resistance against forced veil have shown in a real way that they are determined to stand at the forefront of the struggle against anti-woman Islamic Republic regime of Iran.
On the headstock[U1] of objective conditions and emotional [U2] and the recent uprising of the workers, toilers and other deprived classes against poverty, high prices, corruption, injustice, prostitution, grave or street sleeping, prostitution, drug addiction, unemployment, no future, gender oppression, national oppression and class oppression …, women posed a major challenge to one of the main political-ideological pillars of the Islamic Republic by removing their forced headscarves. Women have consciously challenged one of the structural principles of the Islamic Republic nervous system, and have turned the forty years long resistance against compulsory hijab into a public protest.
The Islamic Republic of Iran carried out its first attack on women by forcing hijab on them three weeks after coming to power, in order to control and intimidate the society. The Islamic fundamentalist’s rampage on women was not accidental. Compulsory hijab is the ideological flag and a tool of state control over women’s body, will and fate; and it was after imposing hijab that all other unequal laws and Islamic punishments against women were approved. But women were the first force who heard the sound of Islamic fundamentalist coming to power. Tens of thousands of revolutionary, militant and freedom seeking women came into the streets on March 8, 1979, the International Women’s Day, protesting for several days in opposition to the compulsory Hijab order, and made a persistence struggle in the history of women’s struggles against compulsory hijab, against the onslaught of the state on Society and women’s bodies and freedom, and practically against the emergence of a new religious tyranny. By doing so, they laid the foundations of a new women’s movement. Since then, women; individually or collectively, consciously or spontaneously, with ebbs and flows, have been resisting the regime’s war on women. Women have resisted and struggled not only against compulsory hijab, but also in other aspects of women’s oppression such as right to divorce and custody, right to education and work, right to choose in marriage, right to choose a same-sex partner and … .
In the current sensitive situation, by strengthening the rank and file of the Campaign to fight state, social and domestic violence against women in Iran by organizing a three day rally and participating in it could help to widen the voices of radical women, in conjunction with other social movements in Iran, in order to help the revolutionary overthrowing of the Islamic fundamentalism regime. We are appealing to all political, social activists, Medias, parties and organizations for women’s rights to sign our petition and defend our campaign in the upcoming three day rally and protest.
