Rallies in support of Marzieh Hashemi, an American reporter for Iran’s state network Press TV, took place Friday around the country and in cities around the world, following her release last week from U.S. custody. Hashemi, a U.S. citizen, resides in Tehran but was arrested and detained by the FBI during a visit to the United States, where she is working on a film about the Black Lives Matter movement. In an interview with The Guardian, Hashemi said, “It is not about me. It is about the U.S. Justice Department and government—that they feel that they can just take people’s rights away, sweep them off of the streets, hold them in the name of being a material witness and not charging them … indefinitely.”
