Mahsa Amini was arrested by the Iranian morality police for wearing her hijab 'improperly', but collapsed and died in custody a few days later. Her death sparked huge international outrage and protest.
In the UK, the Iranian community continues to turn out weekly to show solidarity with the movement in Iran, spearheaded by women and teenagers, demanding fundamental rights for women and pushing for a change in Iranian leadership.
We join part of the British movement, an activist group called United4Mahsa, to see how members are showing support and spreading awareness about the situation in Iran.

#news #iran #protest #IranProtests #hijab #middleeast
thank you for sharing these stories and this wonderful short documentary - such an important human rights issue !
Pure Truth
Sending strength and positive vibes to all the freedom loving citizens of Iran from India.
India cares about irany womens rights instead of Nerbhoya,Bilkis banu,Asifa banus rights
Be brave be strong, we’re all stand with you, blessing from Taiwan ❤
Persians are very resilient people Great warriors
Why don’t you go to Iran and do it?
But what if it´s one of those Half-Woman/Half-Man things?
That´s definately half-a-man, right? 🤣
This is amazing to watch - I feel the Britney mention would actually resonate with many from this generation of Iranian women reflecting on their early years. Thank you for sharing your story and helping to shed light on the reality for so many brave Iranian women and men. I follow united4mahsa and the work you and your team are doing to amplify Iranian voices, unite the Iranian diaspora behind civilians and educate others about Iran is so courageous, determined, just phenomenal.
how can i join this protest?
Which city are you based? There is one in London every Saturday mostly at Trafalgar square for example
@@halehir I am based in Hendon
If a woman is worth only 1/2 a man, how did that male come to be on the planet?
are you being serious rn
@@brookiecookie004 Yes. Who birthed the man? Did a man birth the man? Did a man carry the baby for 9 months? No, women did.
If anything, women are worth x2 a man.
As a man, I fully support women’s rights. It takes a small minded individual to think your better and deserve more than another human being because of your gender. It’s ridiculous.
One their woman is half of one their man, that with his brain lives in a black grave like their tradition teaches.
When will people fight for civilian men's rights in Ukraine?
But this video is about the women (& men), life & Freedom in Iran?
@@markymarknz783 where's the gεndεr εquaIity when fleeíng ūkrāinε men are forcεd at gūñpoint to fíght? stop pIaying word games.
Probably if you search for that video? Or stop complaining about ‘when’ and star protesting Tf??? Men project EVERYTHING on women 😂😂😂😂
Wrong video! This is about WOMEN IN IRAN!
yeah lets all bury our heads in sand and selectively invokε womεn's rights only on εnεmy states. s-m-h
Men in Ukraine can't leave their country legally. Society: I sleep
Women in Iran can't leave the house without head covering. Society: wide awake
Wearing a headscarf would initially solve the problem for the ladies in Iran. Men leaving Ukraine will not solve anything at all.
@@joesoy9185 Improving and potentially saving their lives won't solve anything at all? Freedom and actual gender equality won't solve anything at all? Wow, just wow
Neither issue negates the other
@@yasmeendomingo The media always talks about injustice against women. Women's often minor issues are portrayed as the only problems in our society
@@herekitty791 These issues are not minor. And by your statement, just say you don’t/hate women.
OKAY
In iran women's have no rights to talk over her husband they could get punished for that alone but they wanna change that
Take it to Iran. It's not a British problem.
Irans politics is a threath to our free world.
Where’s homegirls neck at
😂😂😂😂
Damet garm Haleh 🙏🌄❤️☀️🇬🇧🔥

❤ King Reza Pahlavi ❤
Get lost
you
Thanks but no thanks.
If you don't want this law you can go out
Ah yes, because it's just that easy.
YES !! MOST WOMEN ARE HALF A MAN !! IN THAT SENSE OF THE TERM.
There is Old Iranian Saying : Kar Kare Englisi hast !!!!!!!!
Long live IR IRAN 💚🤍♥️
They have no honor..
@@circa1890Were you in Iran telling that?!
6:20 thats a lie
have you ever been to a wedding in Iran?
