تبریک به ملت شریف و بزرگ ایران. ایران، امروز، یکم مارچ ۲۰۲۶، ساعت از نو تنظیم شد. ✌🏻🫂
February 14, Toronto. Over 500,000 people! On a day dedicated to love. 💪🏻😭
I wasn’t in the crowd this time, but I was not somewhere else either.
I waited all week from another time zone, following the buses arriving from across Ontario, Telegram groups opening homes, strangers handing out food, Canadian officials standing beside Iranians. I watched it form, hour by hour, Wafaa and I kept talking about it as it unfolded.
On a day the world calls Valentine’s Day, families inside Iran were placing flowers where their children were shot. And in Toronto, people gathered. 🫀
Yesterday reminded me that exile does not erase belonging. It stretches it. 🏹

فوریه، تورنتو. بیش از پانصد هزار نفر.💪🏻😭
من وسط جمعیت نبودم، اما تمام روز حس می‌کردم همان‌جا ایستاده‌ام.
از آن سوی دنیا خبرها را لحظه‌به‌لحظه دنبال می‌کردم؛ اتوبوس‌هایی که از شهرهای مختلف راه افتاده بودند، خانه‌هایی که برای غریبه‌ها باز می‌شد، آدم‌هایی که برای هم غذا می‌آوردند، و مسئولانی که کنار ایرانی‌ها می‌ایستادند. می‌دیدم چطور آرام‌آرام شکل می‌گیرد و با وفا لحظه‌به‌لحظه درباره‌اش حرف می‌زدیم.
در روزی که اسمش را گذاشته‌اند روز عشق، در ایران گل بر خاکی گذاشته می‌شد که فرزندانمان روی آن افتادند. و آن‌طرف‌تر، در تورنتو، مردم کنار هم جمع شدند.
دیروز فهمیدم فاصله، تعلق را کم نمی‌کند؛ فقط گسترده‌ترش می‌کند.🏹

روز عشقمان مبارک 🫀
In spaces where Iranian voices are few, acknowledging Iran becomes more than personal, it becomes necessary.
Today, that acknowledgment was the heart of my public keynote at VCUarts Qatar, Virginia Commonwealth University School of the Arts in Qatar.

Grateful to,, and for the invitation to ArtWeek at such a meaningful time.

‎به یاد آنان که جسارت بیشتری از ما داشتند،
‎حرف ما را بلندتر فریاد زدند،
‎و امروز در کنار ما نیستند.
This is the largest nationwide open-air prison of this century, enforced by the government during an active repression through an internal blackout while people continue to be killed and mass arrests are ongoing.

Structural critique and media analysis matter. But timing matters too. When people are being killed, detained, and cut off from communication, shifting the focus toward abstraction, narrative complexity, or media manipulation risks displacing material violence with analysis.

This is not a branding problem.
This is not a messaging failure.

What is not neutral is theorizing fragmentation while bodies are still being counted. Complexity should never come at the cost of urgency or dignity. I’m listening and observing, but for now, my responsibility is clear, to stand with the people.

Sara.

این بزرگ‌ترین زندان روباز سراسری در این قرن است؛ وضعیتی که حکومت با قطع داخلی ارتباطات و در دلِ سرکوب فعال تحمیل کرده، در حالی که کشتار ادامه دارد و بازداشت‌های گسترده همچنان جریان دارد.

نقد ساختاری و تحلیل رسانه‌ای مهم‌اند، اما زمان‌بندی از همه‌چیز مهم‌تر است. وقتی مردم کشته می‌شوند، بازداشت می‌شوند و از ارتباط با جهان قطع شده‌اند، بردنِ تمرکز به سمت انتزاع، پیچیدگی‌های روایی یا بازی‌های رسانه‌ای، خطرِ جایگزین‌کردنِ خشونتِ عینی با تحلیل را دارد.

این مسئله برندسازی نیست.
این شکست پیام‌رسانی نیست.

آنچه بی‌طرف نیست، نظریه‌پردازی درباره تکه‌تکه‌شدن واقعیت است، وقتی هنوز بدن‌ها شمرده می‌شوند. پیچیدگی هرگز نباید به بهای فوریت یا کرامت انسانی تمام شود. من گوش می‌دهم و مشاهده می‌کنم، اما در این لحظه مسئولیت من روشن است: ایستادن در کنار مردم.

Tehranpars is no longer just a neighborhood. 😭 My family’s home has become a site of violence. My father is still there.

‎تهران‌پارس دیگر فقط یک محله نیست؛ خانه‌ی خانواده‌ی من حالا زیر آتش است. پدرم هنوز آنجاست
