Iran’s brutal response to protests and the wider political divisions for Iranians in Iran and elsewhere

from Two and a Mic - The Social Podcast

Since the times of the Shah, the religious revolution in Iran has been talking about oppression, the corruption of the west, and the hope for the Iranian people in following the leadership of the revolutionaries. Since 1979 the current government has been everything but revolutionary. The government in Iran has been regression in action. It finds excuses for its own ineffectiveness, and it kills people who try to exercise their human rights to expression and thought.Parastu joins me to talk about Iran and to give her thoughts on why Iran is experiencing this latest wave of oppression and to share her hopes for the future.Thank you Parastu as always.I welcome opinions of every kind so please come and find me on social media at:Instagram: TwoandaMicTwitter: TwoandaMic1TikTok: Twoandamic2Should I really have to ask? 😉 If you like the developing story of this social journey unfurling in my series of podcasts, feel more than free, feel partially responsible for spreading the word by subscribing and sharing and where possible, liking.
