In an act of extraordinary courage, Iranian female singer Parastoo Ahmadi live-streamed herself singing without the forced hijab in a Tehran caravanserai, risking severe repercussions from the authorities in a country where women are prohibited from singing and revealing their hair.

She announced the live-stream in her social media and wrote:
"I am Parastoo, a girl who cannot stay silent and refuses to stop singing for the people she loves. This is my right, one I will never surrender. I sing for this land I adore, for the soil of my homeland. Here, in this sacred corner of our beloved Iran, listen to my voice in this imaginary concert, and dream of a free and beautiful nation."

This bold act of civil disobedience underscores a powerful commitment to change and highlights the growing demand for freedom in Iran. This is while the Islamic Republic regime not only continues to ban women from singing, it just passed a new law that imposes severe punishments for women who take their Hijab off.

#ParastooAhmadi was arrested once before in 2022 during the #WomanLifeFreedom uprising after she posted the song “From the Blood of the Youth of the Homeland” on her social media.
