Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei says Iran’s 1979 Islamic Revolution, inspired by the path of Islam’s Prophet Muhammad, countered arrogance and tyranny in support of oppressed people, prompting the world’s villains and criminals to mobilize and try, albeit in vain, to confront the movement.

When did Imam Khomeini let out the cry of "Black Lives Matter"?

One of the stated goals of the Islamic Revolution of Iran led by Imam Khomeini in 1979 was to fight against racism and to support people of color. What did the Islamic Revolution do to prove this claim? Did Imam Khomeini fulfill his promise?

Imam Khomeini marked the beginning of a whole new era for the nation

The Islamic Revolution of 1979 was one of the most important uprisings in modern political history, an event which still shapes the world. After enduring decades of economic exploitation under the British, followed by a CIA and MI6 coup in 1953 to overthrow Iranian PM Mossadegh and replace him with Western-backed monarch the Shah, Iran finally stood up to Britain and the United States. Iranians took to the streets by the millions, regained its sovereignty as well control over its natural resources and dealt a heavy blow to imperialism, setting the stage for resistance and anti-imperialist movements to this day.
