While he says the movement is indeed remarkable, Kamran illuminates the way protest has been used as a form of resistance in Iran's history with beginnings well before Mahsa Amini's death. Neither is protest confined to fighting women's issues. Kamran says Iranian society is diverse and not all sectors have responded equally to State oppression.  This segment is the first part of an extended interview about Iran's political landscape.

Safety For Who? Abolitionist perspectives on Criminalising Coercive Control.  Nov 11 2020. Online webinar.   In September 2020, a private member’s bill was introduced into the NSW parliament, which aimed to criminalise ‘coercive control’. A number of high-profile family and domestic violence advocates and campaigners publicly supported the Bill and the idea of criminalising coercive control in Australia more widely.  However, many members of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander, people of colour, disabled, working class, and/or abolitionist communities raised concerns about this, stating that criminalisation would not keep survivors safe and would endanger survivors from criminalised and over-policed communities.  In response to the concerns of marginalised communities and the media coverage on the issue, a panel was organised by the Tuesday Breakfast team to explore the anti-criminalisation arguments with those most affected and at-risk. The panel provided a platform for community voices and lived experience, and the clear intersection between abolitionist politics, structural racism and classism, and intersectional feminism.  Featuring - Tabitha Lean, Monique Hameed and Georgia Mantle.Facilitated by George Maxwell  (3CR Breakfast)
