زنان خوش خبر و نويدبخش

در ميان انبوهي از خبرهاي تلخ و نگران‎كننده مربوط به خشونت و جنگ و كشتار كه امروز از خاورميانه به گوش مي‎رسد، باز اين زنان هستند كه با ابتكارات انساني، حركات مدني، حيات‎بخش و صلح‎جويانه‎ي خود، ما را به آينده اين منطقه پرآشوب و خونبار اميدوار مي‎كنند. روزي مي‎شنويم كه عده‎اي از زنان فلسطيني، اسرائيلي و لبناني دور هم جمع شده‎اند و تلاش دارند با مذاكره و تعامل و ابتكارات تازه، راه حلي منصفانه و عملي براي پايان بخشيدن به جنگ‎هاي طولاني بين جوامع خود بيابند

HUMAN DIGNITY
Deferred dreams
Elahe Amani
September 1, 2006

The summer of 2006 marks the 18th anniversary of one of the most hideous waves of executions in Iran’s history. Let us not forget the crimes against humanity that took away and silenced thousands of the brave souls and bright young people in Iran. No one knows the exact number of political prisoners who have been executed since 1979.

But, the first decade of 1979-1989, and specifically during the summer of 1981 and 1988, Iran had one of the worst periods of human rights violations. What would happen to our collective "Deferred Dreams" for respect to human rights and human dignity? Will it explode as Langston Hughes’ poetry reminds us? (**)

Despite the tragic history, however, I have faith in humanity. I believe that one day people of Iran and the international human rights community will hold the government of Iran accountable for these crimes against humanity. As Gandhi said, "You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty".

I look forward with hope and confidence to the day when the human race will respect the most basic human right, the "Right to Live " and to total eradication of all death penalty laws around the world, whether through injections, electric chairs, stonings, or fire squad executions.

The day that our dreams will not be deferred, will be the day when we actualize and realize the human rights of every person regardless of race and ethnicity, gender, religion, sexual orientation, or any other layer of identity that makes us so beautifully diverse. The day that our dreams will not be deferred will be the day that people are not being denied of their "Right to Live" and death penalties, honor killings, and stonings will no longer be a part of our vocabulary.

The world of our deferred dreams is possible. According to Arundhati Roy, “she is on her way. On a quiet day, I can hear her breathing.”

The committee for human rights and freedom of political prisoners in Iran-Southern California

The suppression of demonstrators in Azerbaijan, Khuzestan, and Kurdistan, the silencing of labor, women, and student movements and the vicious attacks on demonstrators throughout the past year, are all evidence of the ongoing and abhorrent human rights violations by the Islamic Republic of Iran. In such an atmosphere, Iran's democracy movement calls for the unity and support of people of conscience from around the world.

We support and welcome the suggestion of Akbar Ganji for a global hunger strike that demands the release of all political detainees from the Islamic Republic's jails, especially three prominent political prisoners namely: Ali Akbar Mousavi Khoeni, a leading activist in the student movement and former member of parliament, Dr Ramin Jahanbegloo, a philosopher, professor and public intellectual, and Mansour Osanloo, a prominent labor leader and executive director of the Worker's Syndicated Union. The hunger strike will be held from July 14 through July 16, 2006 in New York, in front of the United Nations.

We ask for the participation, support and solidarity of people from Iran and around the world who care about human rights.

In this respect, "The committee for human rights and freedom of political prisoners in Iran-Southern California" along with the students and other people who share our goal will take part in the protest organized on Sunday, July 16 in front of the Federal Building in Westwood, Los Angeles.
