Women across Iran defy authorities by releasing illicit dance videos

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

A dance video posted by five Tehran girls that went viral has inspired others across Iran to make and post similar videos with the same song in a new form of protest against the clerical regime.

The ‘copycat’ videos amount to a risky act of defiance as women in Iran are forbidden by the ruling clerics from dancing in public.

The five who put out the original video were reported by official media to have voiced contrition. But whether they have done so or not, or have done so without duress, is unclear.

The dance videos released on social media can be seen as an imaginative alternative format for protest as activists try to bring the anti-regime demonstrations that first broke out last mid-September back to the boil.
