So, I’ve been thinking a lot of Iran the past couple days. And clearly, I feel somewhat slackjawed about what to say here and now. I guess I could talk about everyone saying something something about Twitter and the revolution… or something about tweeting from behind the chador… or bizarre jabs at middle class Tehrani youth culture… or the total discomfort of Andrew Sullivan posting Rumi poems in solidarity with the Iranian people… but I’m not sure where to begin so for the moment. I’ll just leave it with this:
“I am not Iran’s Michelle Obama. I am Zahra, the follower of Fatimah Zahra. I respect all women who are active.” – Zahra Rahnavard
Rahnavard’s shout out to Bebe Fatimah is pretty fucking badass.
