Chants of "Woman, Life, Freedom" echoed Sunday around Roosevelt Island in New York City as hundreds gathered to bring to life an art installation symbolizing solidarity with the women leading the uprising in Iran.
At the center of Franklin D. Roosevelt Four Freedoms State Park, a massive portrait of an Iranian teenager's face, printed on a cotton canvas, lay on the ground. More than 300 demonstrators lined up behind it, standing in waves to mimic her long, flowing hair.
