Opinion: Rocklin High Student’s Voices Matter to

Sometimes it is hard to find the light beyond the mountains that seperate us from freedom and justice. This is exacly what the people of Iran are fighting for.

In recent years, the women of Iran have been fighting for their rights and freedoms in the face of a government that has increasingly suppressed their voices. One of the ways the government has attempted to squash this movement is by shutting down the internet in Iran, making it difficult for women to communicate and organize with each other.

“I get worried, my parents get worried about their parents, it’s hard for us to communicate to them,” said Alylin Kalantaripourdarranji.

Despite these obstacles, the women of Iran have not given up the fight. They have taken to the streets, marching and chanting slogans in support of their cause. “It’s fighting for ‘zan’ which means women and their freedom, ‘zindagi’ which means life, then ‘azadi’ which means freedom,” said Mr. Taghavi.

The internet shutdown has made it difficult for the world to hear the stories of these brave women, but they remain determined to have their voices heard.
