How have women given shape to the revolution?

Libération

As repression intensifies in Iran, the “Woman, Life, Freedom” movement continues to make its voice heard. In a context where the opposition struggles to organize itself, women have become central figures of the protest, reshaping its codes. By linking the body, intimacy, and everyday life to political struggle, they give this revolution a new, more human dimension.
Have women transformed the nature of the uprising? How far will they be able to take it?
