Title: The Wind in My Hair
Performance: Mobina Nouri
Music: Nima Sepehr + Mohammad Hassanzadeh
Speakers and hair installation: Katayoun Bahrami + Badri Valian
This event is a continuation of a The Wind in My Hair program curated by Katayoun Bahrami and presented by Clarion Alley Mural Project in collaboration with CCA Center for the Arts and Public Life in San Francisco to show solidarity with the brave women in Iran. The title of this event is borrowed from Masih Alinejad's book, The Wind in My Hair.
Chopped hair and discarded hijabs have become worldwide symbols for women's liberation after the death of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini. In the performance at Clarion Alley, Mobina Nouri attached scissors to her red dress and stood with long strands of her hair tied to a gate, each strand bearing the photo and name of an imprisoned protester. She invited participants to cut her hair and keep the images as sobering reminders of these individuals' fates. Two musicians performed a duet called "Voices of Iran."
"Woman. Life. Freedom." "Zan. Zendegi. Azadi." This is the slogan chanted on the streets of Iran since the Islamic Republic's morality police killed Mahsa Amini after she was arrested because of an improper hijab. Despite brutal crackdowns and the internet being shut down, protesters have not backed down. These protests are about more than mandatory hijabs -- they are about the systemic oppression of women in Iran. For more than 100 days now, the brave protesters in Iran have been risking their lives for freedom. Now women, men, girls, boys, and people of all ages are standing shoulder-to-shoulder against the regime that has segregated and oppressed women in Iran for decades.
Join us for this performance, turn outrage into action, and stand in solidarity with Iranian women.
