A Song To Start A Revolution | Episode 9

Season 1 Episode 9

In this episode we  examine the historic nature of the Iranian activists taking to the streets right now. We learn from 4 Iranian Americans who call Seattle home and investigate the incredibly moving protest song, Baraye.

We encourage you to learn more about Iran's history, Mahsa's (Jina's) death and the brave young women putting their lives on the line in her name.
