Not About Sports: Afsoon Roshanzamir Johnston
from Not About Sports
Wow. This story has it all - intrigue, forged passports, breaking Mom's figurines, and beginning of championship women's wrestling. Afsoon was there - she talks about secretly training in revolutionary Iran, the movie-worthy story of how they escaped, and how standing up to a bully resulted in her being the first US woman to win a medal at a world championship.
