International Women's Day in Iran
Human Rights Watch is reporting that "Iranian police and plainclothes agents yesterday charged a peaceful assembly of women’s rights activists in Tehran and beat hundreds of women and men who had gathered to commemorate International Women’s Day". The blog "A Daily Briefing on Iran" has more details and links to three videos of the Iranian women's demonstrations at the bottom of the post. Still photos of the demonstrations are at Arash Ashoorinia's photography blog in the March 08 entry.
