A woman’s rights activist in Iran who organized protest actions from within Iran’s notorious Evin prison, Narges Mohammadi, won the 2023 Nobel Peace Prize on Friday.
Mohammadi reportedly organized acts of defiance against the regime in prison in the aftermath of the brutal state killing of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini, whom members of Iran’s “morality police”to death in September 2022 because her hijab was allegedly worn incorrectly.
Mohammadi is an engineer by trade and began vocalizing support for women’s rights as a college student. Her calls for respect for human rights“In 2011 Ms Mohammadi was arrested for the first time and sentenced to many years of imprisonment for her efforts to assist incarcerated activists and their families,” the Nobel Committee narrated. “Two years later, after her release on bail, Ms Mohammadi immersed herself in a campaign against use of the death penalty.
“The prison authorities responded by imposing even stricter conditions. Ms Mohammadi was prohibited from receiving calls and visitors. She nevertheless managed to smuggle out an article which the New York Times published on the one-year anniversary of Mahsa Jina Amini’s killing,” the Committee noted. “The message was: ‘The more of us they lock up, the stronger we become.’ From captivity, Ms Mohammadi has helped to ensure that the protests have not ebbed out.
