Azadeh

I was watching the photographs taken at the Miss Universe national costume parade published in Herald Sun. I was surprised by the very peaceful costume of Israel. Although I have so many problems with what Israel does in Palestine, this picture is carved in my mind as another aspect of Israel.

It could be just a coincidence, but here is the picture of what’s happening in my country these days. The police tries to support a state-run costume which many women do not want to follow.

Yes, the following is the costume of my country. And I am so proud of all the women who fight for their very basic rights.

Here is a list of some blogs condemning the police brutality.

p.s. It was reported that in response to the police warnings and brutality toward women’s dress, some of them unveiled themselves and others are threatening to do the same.
