Women, Life, Freedom: supporting the Iranian women's revolution

1600 Pleasant Street,Boulder CO 80302

30 November, 2022

Description

This event seeks to inspire our elected officials and campus administrators to take action in response to the historic women’s movement unfolding in Iran. In doing so, we hope to continue to build important lines of solidarity for the Iranian and Iranian-American community. We position this event in service of the movement’s goal of regime change to a secular democracy in Iran. We intend to engage our panelists, through Q&A, to brainstorm and explore strategic actions we can take to support the movement. We hope to pair this conversation with spoken word and the arts in order to make visible the power of this movement and to acknowledge the brutality with which it is being met by the Islamic Republic. This event is planned for students, faculty, staff, and administrators from CU Boulder; the general public; elected officials; and activists advocating for transnational solidarity. This event will be broadcast for anyone who cannot attend in person (https://vimeo.com/event/2632146/a582ee3172). Registration is free and open to the public, and will be required for admission. (Following the overwhelming response to our first event on October 20, we have reserved an auditorium with a larger capacity. Please only register if you are certain to attend!) We hope you’ll join us! This event will be broadcast for anyone who cannot attend in person. Please find the live broadcast at https://vimeo.com/event/2632146/a582ee3172 Panelists will include local and state elected officials as well as campus administrators.
