The march and all of the previous protests that have been taking place almost every weekend are in response to the death of Mahsa Amini who died in the custody of Iran's morality police.
"Unfortunately, some media says, 'oh the women of Iran only want the freedom of the hijab,' the scarf. But, that's just a symbol," Afaghpour told CBSLA Reporter Jeff Nguyen.
Protestors demand change in the country's treatment of women and in its strict wardrobe policies for women. "It's about Mahsa Amini but so many other women and children like her who are so brave and courageous who put their life on the line to fight for life, freedom," Marjan Nourai said.
