My voice will not reside in my chest… It’s a cry that will reach the furthest of the world

We were returning from university talking with my friends about International Women’s Day in last year and in years before, we wondered what should we do this year. On our way before we reach Vali-e-Asr intersection we saw a young girl maybe a high school girl.
Three surly women wearing chador and two bearded men with guns were surrounding her like hyenas surrounding their bait. They were harassing her and the poor innocent girl was horrified; her eyes looking for help.
She was quiet at first but talking with her eyes she asked: what have I done? What have I said?
When we got closer we noticed that they have searched her back and had found some posters with the picture of a woman on it crying in protest.
These street searches are executed in any time of the day and anywhere.
On the posters one could read this poem:
I will strike on the roots of the henchman,
You miserable you are the hay I am a woman! (Pointing to Ahmadinejad’s calling the brave youths of Iran as hays).
And then;
the Iranian women honor the universal Women’s Day.
One of the Pasdar women (Revolutionary Guards) repeated the sentences and said: what else you wanted to do? This is striking at the structure of the state. To whom are you taking these posters? Do you want to distribute them among the school girls so that they would take into the streets on Women’s Day? Don’t you think we know what you intend to do? People like you have sunk the country into chaos. Moreover this so-called Women’s Day belongs to Moharebs, to seculars, this is an Islamic country and we don’t have a Women’s Day. This is none of your business. Just study your lessons and watch your veil!
People gathered there and protested: let her go. What has she done? What’s your business with her?
But while people were shocked with the act the Pasdars threatened her with gun and made her to get into their car and drove away.
I and my friends, while choked even more with our everyday tears were very sad because we couldn’t do anything for that innocent girl.
The girl was shouting: what have I done? It is only written that I am not hay I am a woman, what’s wrong with that? But her cries and our protest didn’t help.
These scenes are seen a lot in the sad streets of the city. Of course by Women’s Day coming up, street arrests have increased too.
In a cold silence we continued our way.
One of my friends said: what could we do for that innocent girl? We couldn’t confront those beasts if we did they would have taken us away too. What should we have done?
Then another friend as if she had a new discovery said all of a sudden: why is she arrested? Because she wanted to distribute posters regarding Women’s Day, right? We all saw the posters, right?
We all said: yes we did!
She continued: we must do the same but several times more. Before we see this scene we were thinking of what we should do this year now we know. Even if we are arrested what is important is that we must have faith.
Women are key elements of the movement as it was proved in the uprisings of Nov.4th, Dec.7th, Ashura (Dec.27th) and Feb.11th.
March 8th is our day! We must strike at the regime on this day by any means. We must distribute her poem all around the city on that day.
As Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, the president elect of NCRI (National Council of Resistance of Iran) has said we must prove that the mullahs will receive the blow from where they don’t even think of; whom it thinks that it has crushed under double oppression.
With our quests we can show everybody that we can be pioneers of this movement. This is the message of March 8th.
We promised that we would continue the path of that innocent girl who was taken to regime’s dungeons, on any price.
The henchmen didn’t understand that at those moments the intentions and goals of that innocent girl was multiplied in us.
Our voices will not reside in our chests,
We have decided to cry…
