Tulips
The tulip is a symbol of martyrdom in Iran
72 stained glass tulips adorn the tomb
Of the Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini
(No coincidence with the 72 virgins in Heaven?)
But I wonder if that political regime
Cared to place even one on the tomb
Of the young Masha Amini

Women are considered sub-human or at least lesser-humans by many religions, including certain versions of christianity.

It's these examples that make me sad and upset for the human race, the way women and others treated simply for old ideas in the modern world. You spilled a great contrast.
