Shirin Ebadi, Long live Liberty!

Shirin Ebadi, Long live Liberty!

Shirin Ebadi wowed us all. She came early, gave one interview after another, sang with the volunteers, and shared in a group hug. After Halleh Ghorashi’s rousing introduction, she came to the podium to chants from the crowd: Ebadi! Ebadi! She led us in chants of Free all political prisoners and Long live liberty. She told the crowd that we’ve had enough of death, it’s time for life.

Good luck to everyone else as they take to the streets all over the world. In Amsterdam, we are exhausted, our feet are killing us, and we are already talking about our next global day of action. October anyone? When everyone is back from vacation?

Here is Shirin Ebadi’s speech… Wait for the English translation:
