This book amplifies the voices of organizers, writers, and artists in the  
Iranian freedom struggle who believe that the three elements of naan,  kar, and azadi are inseparable. These voices believe that solidarity— whether between differently oppressed groups or across artificial national  borders—stitches the three elements together and is therefore the key  to victory in the Iranian freedom struggle. Each of the following chap-
ters brings together a diverse array of sources, including oral histories from organizers across Iran’s feminist, labor, and student movements as well as resistance literature and socially engaged art; and explores a perspective from within the Iranian freedom struggle that simultaneously opposes the domestic dictatorship of the Islamic Republic as well as the foreign imperialisms of global powers including the United States, and instead upholds an independent project of radical democratic self- determination in Iran. Moving beyond narratives that treat working-class, feminist, LGBTQ, and marginalized ethnic groups’ movements as separate spheres in the society, I amplify the voices of organizers, thinkers, and artists whose understanding of the Iranian freedom struggle tends  to how gender, ethnic, and class power intersect both domestically and  internationally.
These voices make up a small, though growing, segment of the millions of people who have steadfastly protested for change in  Iran during the rule of the Islamic Republic. Still, I show how they have influenced fellow protesters around them in the struggle as a whole.
