Here we are to enter THE IRANIAN
WOMEN'S REVOLUTIONISTS against
the supreme leader, the arch-reactionary Ayatollah Ali Khamenei,
and his placeman president, Ebrahim Raisi. The message of
the women when he visited a university is plain: <give way or
get lost> in 2023.
IN MEMORY OF ASRA PANAHI (16)- JHINA MAHSA AMINI (22) - NIKA SHAKARAMI (16), SARINA ESMAILZADEH (16) HADIS NAJAFI (20), AND MORE WOMEN WHO WERE ASSASINATED SO

<<The Life of Political Prisoner Pakhshan Azizi is in Serious Danger
Death Sentence Issued to Pakhshan Azizi
Political prisoner Pakhshan Azizi, who is held in the women's ward of
Evin Prison, has been sentenced to death by Branch 26 of the
Revolutionary Court of Tehran, and this sentence was issued to her on
July 23, 2024. Previously, she was convicted of Bagh-ye (armed
insurgency) and, since early July, had been deprived of visits and
contact with her family by order of Evin Prison authorities.
Protest by Women in Evin Prison Against the Death Sentence
On Wednesday, July 24, 2024, the female political prisoners in Evin
Prison protested the death sentence of Pakhshan Azizi by staging a
sit-in. The majority of female political prisoners in the women’s ward
with various beliefs collectively protested in the yard of this ward
against the issuance of the death sentence for Pakhshan Azizi. They
announced that from 7 p.m. (Iran time) on Wednesday, July 24, 2024, they
would be in the ward's yard and not return inside for the night. They
chanted in unison:
Death to the dictator
Death to the execution government
From Kurdistan to Gilan, oppression against women
Women's ward of Evin, united and determined, standing until the death
sentence is abolished
Resistance is life, Pakhshan is a free woman
Political Prisoner Pakhshan Azizi
Kurdish journalist Pakhshan Azizi, a former political prisoner, and
Social Work graduate endured over four months of detainment in the
Intelligence Ministry's Ward 209 at Evin Prison. Her relocation to the
Women's Ward at Evin on Monday, December 11, 2023, marked a significant
shift after enduring extensive interrogation without legal counsel or
communication with her family. The transfer of the Kurdish journalist
Pakhshan Azizi followed her arrest on August 4, 2023, in Shahrak-e
Kharrazi, Tehran. This isn't her first encounter with authorities; she
was previously arrested on November 16, 2009, during a Kurdish student
protest at Tehran University, which was staged against the execution of
political prisoners in Kurdistan. Her prior arrest led to her release on
bail on March 19, 2010.>>

Center for Human Rights in Iran - 22 July 2024
<<Pakhshan Azizi, a Political Prisoner Incarcerated in Evin Prison: "For
the Central Authority, We Are Small, We Don't Count, but for Their
Decrees, We Are the Heaviest and Greatest."
Pakhshan Azizi, a Kurdish political prisoner from Mahabad, who was
arrested in Tehran last year and is now incarcerated in Evin Prison, has
written a letter titled "Denying the Truth and Its Alternative," which
Hengaw Organization for Human Rights has obtained. In it, she recounts
her arrest and torture by security forces of the Islamic Republic of
Iran, writing, "I was hanged by the interrogators many times."
The full text of this letter, published for the first time by Hengaw, is
as follows:
Denying the Truth, and Its Alternative
From the tender years of childhood, she learned the struggle for
survival through the stories and lullabies of a mother who had borne
life's hardships to the very marrow of her bones. With her mother's
soothing voice imparting the essence of life and freedom, she grew and
matured. For a long time, day and night blurred into one in her
relentless quest to stay alive, to find a way of being, and beyond that,
to discover the manner of being. On the peak of a scorching summer,
about 20 people stormed in, wielding the state's intimidation tactics,
believing they had apprehended a terrorist (the same terrorist for whom
public intimidation is one of the pillars!). With hands tied behind her
back and a gun held to her head, the 17-year-old, who was seeing her
aunt for the first time in ten years, was thrown to the ground along
with three other family members. Her captors mounted upon her and her
family with a smirk on their faces as a sign of power and triumph.
Scenes of the massacre and the tearing apart of thousands of Kurdish
Syrian families passed before her eyes like a tragic film. A race
between life and death was underway. In extreme physical weakness, she
clung to the walls of her solitary cell to keep from falling. The very
walls of the cell where she had been detained in 2009 for the same
charges <being Kurdish> and <being a woman>. She could hear her father's
coughing from Ward 3, he had recently been operated on for a cancerous
tumor and he had suffered a stroke, and she worried about the mental and
physical state of her other two family members.
On the first day of interrogation, they offered to quietly settle
everything without judicial proceedings!...
She was hanged multiple times during interrogation. They buried her ten
meters underground and brought her out again, portraying her as socially
desperate and as a failure. Historical memory is replete with this
incident. From childhood, she had been branded as a separatist and as
the second sex, never recognized as a citizen. For the central
authority, we are small, we don't count, but for their decrees, we are
the heaviest and greatest.
Again, during interrogation, her social desperation and her failure were
pointed out to her.
A human being is defined by their gender (the first dimension of their
perception), their language, their culture and art, their management,
their freedom and way of life, and, more generally, their ideology. When
any of these aspects of life are destroyed, or aborted, there is no
place left for a human life. If you abort the free will of a woman as a
dignified human being, there is no place for a free life, and this
signifies a decline from human-moral-political standards. When living
according to one's own identity is stripped of its meaning, it takes a
defensive form, thus leading to rebellion.
The chair is repeatedly beaten against. The insults, humiliations, and
threats filled the room. She is in her worst physical and psychological
conditions resulting from prolonged hunger strike and five months in
solitary confinement (the most horrific white torture), alongside
historical and identity oppressions. Tortures that are a tiny drop in
the sea of history, the clenched fists of the interrogator as a
statesman flaunting his authority each time, the shout that resounds,
why do you deny the truth?! The greatest social truth, that is, the
woman, her identity, being Kurdish, life and freedom, has been denied,
what truth and what denial?! The authoritarian, gender-based, and
religious fundamentalist mindsets are themselves the cause of the
social, political, economic, and cultural crisis, and naturally, what is
the cause cannot be the solution. It is the people themselves who have
the necessary sociopolitical will and consciousness to overcome the
crisis. Denying the truth of the women, Kurds, and all marginalized
communities is to fall into historical distortion and the greatest
denial of truth. It is not only the Kurd who has issues; a greater issue
is at play. The difference between the center and the margin is in one
"K," symbolizing the denial of truth, and that denial is embedded in the
center. Erasing the problem statement instead of solving it can never be
the solution. The annihilation of the collective potential of women and
marginalized communities out of fear is a threat! Democracy and
politics, however, should never fear the realities of a challenging
society, rich in historical memory of genocide and denial.
In a cell she has been alone with for months, with frequent bleeding and
continuous hunger strikes, her health is in critical condition. Besides
wearing out her force in order to extract information, is there anything
else being done there?! She repeats aloud to herself, a small drop in a
vast sea whose flow is inevitable. She massages her legs to stand up.
She rises, falls, it's not unpredictable, we have started walking with
these rise and falls. This is the meaning of our life, the pain that
doesn't kill, makes a human stronger. We have felt, lived, the life on
the margin of existence and non-existence with all our being. The first
corpse she saw was Khadija, whose hands were tied by her husband and
brother, and she was set on fire. She vowed never to stop defending
women's rights. Thousands of women and children saw their men beheaded
before their eyes in ISIS attacks, taken captive, and raped. The culture
of rape that is imposed on women, mothers with infants at their breasts,
whose milk had dried up. Barefoot children, hundreds of them, perished
against the rocks of Shingal , which was reflected in all the world’s
media. A crime against humanity that cannot be fully studied even by
writing hundreds of books. And elsewhere, in Kobani and... dozens of
women and children charred, burned in Turkish airstrikes on Rojava,
their bodies torn apart by ISIS attacks.
She wakes up, unable to stand, vomits, a historical vomit.
Forcibly seated, the threats, and humiliations resume. "Why did you go
to Syria? Why didn't you go to Europe?!"
The question is repeated, revealing a clear attraction and pull towards
the West. Are they talking about their dreams, or are they being drawn
toward what they long for?! After the failure and frustration of your
2009 case due to the stifling political-social atmosphere, I distanced
myself miles from my homeland (where I had the embrace of a mother). The
meaning of life had become meaningless. I left to go to a place that was
mine, too (as you said, Syrian Kurdistan is ours, Turkish Kurdistan and
Iraqi Kurdistan are ours). So I didn't go anywhere apart from my place
and my own! The beginning of a new chapter for the Middle East,
especially working in war refugee camps, which could be the greatest
ethical and conscientious service for a community that had been
oppressed for years. An aid worker duty that, by crossing borders,
becomes revolutionary, were you also there?!
The voice rises, whoever is there, is a member of the PKK?!!
A humanitarian aid worker approach beyond oppression was adopted with a
non-scientific, objectivist view devoid of essentialism. Labeling this
as organizational, based on a few photos (in the height of the
revolution, you see weapons in the hands of women, the elderly, and
youth in every home, neighborhood, camp), is your wrong understanding of
the issue. I believe in revolutionizing people's mentality and realm of
senses first, and pursuing structural changes as the next step. Within
the revolution, naturally, characters are built and formed. Betrayal and
heroism become more prominent in fulfilling social-political
responsibilities because they take place in the heart of the social
issues. But your work is different. Adopting a democratic and systematic
approach and rebuilding an ethical-political society within civil and
humanitarian activities leads to more tangible solutions with higher
practical value.
Local differences must be accepted; this does not equal separatism.
The system for revolutionizing mentality leads its own way.
Democratizing society through democratizing the family to overcome
gender bias, democratizing religion to overcome religious bias (not
anti-religion), democratizing all existing institutions to prevent
authoritarianism, and this is a shared theoretical construct without
falling into the trap of dictatorship and cleansing the authentic
traditions of the region's nations, which are a significant part of
their identity and existence. All my activities and efforts have been in
the direction of serving and fulfilling my historical duty towards my
lived experiences and historical suppressions. I firmly believe that the
right path to achieving a democratic society is essentially through
adopting a democratic approach to construct an ethical-political society
where people themselves deliberate on social issues, make them their
concerns, and find solutions. Maximum people's participation in solving
society's problems will ensure social cohesion and the way out of the
crisis, and this is the essence of living with the feminine knowledge
that achieving democracy will lead to achieving freedom.
