Concrete and From Below

 

U.S. Solidarity with Iran

As members of a feminist collective founded in part to support the massive post-election protests in Iran in 2009 while opposing all forms of U.S. intervention, we take this opportunity to reflect on the meaning and practice of transnational solidarity between U.S.-based activists and sections of Iranian society. Both protests against and expressions of support for Ahmadinejad are articulated under the banner of support for the “Iranian people.”
