Amin has been climbing for over 23 years, starting in Shiraz, a historical city in Iran. In 2017, he moved to the U.S. to work as a head routesetter, and was shot in a senseless act of violence that critically injured him and shook friends and family to their core. The irony of growing up in the Islamic Republic of Iran and never being afraid of guns until he moved to America is...sobering.Today, Amin remains deeply engaged in advocacy for Iranian people, especially women. He believes the revolution is coming and is inspired by those who have put their lives on the line for change.This is part one of a two-part story.Visit GoFundMe.com/myshare4freedom (http://GoFundMe.com/myshare4freedom) to support those who have been directly affected during the Woman Life Freedom movement.Find Amin on Instagram at @amminabbasi (https://www.instagram.com/amminabbasi/?hl=en) for updates and more.
