👉🏿 This year is truly special - for the first time in memory Nauroze (Zoroastrian New Year), Eid-ul-Fitr (Muslin) and Chaitra Navarro (Hinduism) have fallen on the same day. A moment like this reminds us of something powerful: no matter our traditions, cultures, or faith, we share the same hopes for peace, prosperity, good health, new beginnings. Nowruz is being celebrated in #Iran as the Persian New Year or “new day” - it marks the arrival of Spring. Celebrated for more than 3,000 years across Iran and many other regions, it symbolises renewal, hope and unity and the harmony between humanity and nature. Today, I am calling attention to all those who have been imprisoned in that country for simply raising their voices peacefully. I appeal for their freedom, for the protection of their lives, and for an end to repression. Today, I also raise my voice to appeal for the young Iranian women footballers who, with courage, have chosen to return home and not to remain silent.These are women who not only play football but also peacefully challenge a system that, for years, has sought to silence them, render them invisible, and punish them for exercising their freedom. They should not be targeted for refusing to sing the anthem, for becoming symbols of dignity in the face of fear. Today, in my capacity as Founder and President of the Bianca Jagger Human Rights Foundation @TheBJHRF and sponsor of the Instituto CASLA campaign #SponsorAPoliticalPrisonerWorldwide, I wish to state: that they are not alone. I will serve as their voice when attempts are made to silence them. I will amplify their struggle, their courage, and their right to live without fear. Sports ought to constitute a space of freedom rather than repression. No woman should be compelled to risk her life or her future for expressing herself, for playing, or for existing. These young women represent thousands of others in Iran who have been persecuted for aspiring to something as fundamental as equality. Cases such as that of Sahar Jodayarí underscore the high cost many have paid in their efforts to occupy spaces that were denied to them. Today, I stand with them and I commit myself to be their #godmother. Until they are able to speak without fear. Until playing is no longer an act of courage, but an expression of freedom. @caslainstitute @TAMARA_SUJU @Independent @BiancaJagger #ApadrinaAUnPresoPoliticoDelMundo
