Sevdaliza has released a new song in support of women in Iran, amid ongoing protests there, called ‘Woman Life Freedom’.“I wrote a song for oppressed women around the world”, she says. “I stand proud as an Iranian woman and I am supporting the fight of my sisters who shed their blood, hair, hearts and brains to give us all the hope, that one day, we will be free”.“At a young age I became aware of the systematic means of forcing women into obedience through violence and intimidation”, she goes on. “To persuade women that their minds, bodies and freedom do not belong to them.

Our humanity demands we stand up against the oppression of women. Now. And forever”.“We must continue to speak up and fight institutions that condone oppression, violence and murder”, she concludes. “We must face the people that deny the dignity and respect for all of us women.

We are so tired of being told how to be, what to be”.Protests began in Iran three weeks ago, following the death of 22 year old Mahsa Amini, who was arrested for allegedly breaking the country’s strict dress code.
