For the Sun After Long Nights: The Story of Iran's Women-Led Uprising
For the Sun After Long Nights: The Story of Iran's Women-Led Uprising
A moving exploration of the 2022 women-led protests in Iran, as told through the interwoven stories of two Iranian journalists In 2022, in response to the killing of Mahsa Jina Amini, a 22-year-old Kurdish woman who died in police custody after being arrested for not wearing her hijab, thousands of Iranians - mostly women - took to the streets in protest. Fatemeh Jamalpour had just returned to the country after working in London, and despite the threat of imprisonment or death for her work as a journalist, joined the throngs of people fighting to topple Iran's religious extremist regime.
Across the globe, Nilo Tabrizy, whose parents emigrated from Iran and raised her in Canada, was covering the protests and state violence in Iran, knowing that spotlighting the women on the frontlines and the systemic injustice of the Iranian government meant she would not be able to safely return to Iran in the future.
Though they had only met once in person, Nilo and Fatemeh corresponded constantly, often through encrypted platforms in order to protect Fatemeh's privacy and security. As the protests continued to unfold, the sense of sisterhood they shared led them to embark on an effort to document the spirit and legacy of the movement, and the history, geopolitics, and influences that led to this point. At once deeply personal and assiduously reported, For the Sun After Long Nights offers two perspectives on what it means, as a journalist, to cover the stories that are closest to one's heart--both from the frontlines and from afar.
