Tomorrow marks 5 months since the news broke out that a Kurdish woman by the name of Mahsa Amini, Zhina in her mother tongue, died after days in a coma. A native of Saqqez, Kurdistan, 22 year old Zhina’s trip to Tehran turned into an encounter with the Islamic Republic’s discriminatory laws and brutality and later, her death. Niloofar Hamedi, the journalist who broke Zhina’s story remains behind bars, as the reignited Kurdish slogan, “Jin, Jîyan, Azadî” (“Woman, life, freedom“) fuels the uprising. The words inscribed by her family on her grave, “Beloved Zhina (Mahsa), you will not die. Your name will become a code,” have come to life in the protests and demonstrations held by Iranians both inside and outside the country in pursuit of a free Iran: one where neither being a woman nor journalism is a crime.

The cartoon of the week, in honour of Zhina, is “Mahsa Amini” by Homa Eskandari. Source: CartoonMovement.
