In September 2022, #NikaShakarami attended a protest in #Tehran.

That day, she championed Iran’s #WomanLifeFreedom movement, burning hijabs in defiance of the regime.

But that day, she never came home.

This is the story of how a 16-year-old girl became an icon… Image Its 20th September 2022 – four days after #MahsaAmini’s death.

Nika’s in Laleh Park, Central Tehran, torching hijabs before the eyes of security forces.

To protestors, this made her an icon. To security forces, it made her a target.

Second THREAD documenting violent events relating to #EndSARS & #EndSWAT protests from Oct 19th –26th.

The majority of calls to #EndPoliceBrutalityinNigeria have been peaceful.

This thread helps ensure incidents where violence has ensued are not swept under the rug.
1/25 N.B. Like last week, I can’t give a full picture of each event. Events not listed or deeply covered I’m still investigating. I offer what info I can.

Numbers like 9.068064, 7.511115 are geocodes, identifying a place like coordinates do.

Google geocodes to see the place.

THREAD documenting violence at last week’s #EndSARS & #EndSWAT protests.

Police brutality is a regular horror for some Nigerians. But now, more than ever, cries ring out to #EndPoliceBrutalityinNigeria.

This thread helps ensure those incidents aren’t swept under the rug.
1/25 N.B. This thread isn’t exhaustive and can’t give a full picture of each event. Many need more investigation.

A number like: 9.068064, 7.511115, is a geocode identifying a place as coordinates do: 9°04'05.0"N 7°30'40.0"E.

Copy & paste into Google to see the place.
