Description

Marina Nemat (@marinanemat) is a human rights activist who survived torture and imprisonment in Iran after Ayatollah Khomeini's Islamic Revolution. She chronicled her ordeals in Prisoner of Tehran: One Woman's Story of Survival Inside an Iranian Prison.
What We Discuss with Marina Nemat:

How life for women in Iran prior to Ayatollah Khomeini's Islamic Revolution mirrored their contemporaries in the United States.
Why most of the populace optimistically thought the Islamic Revolution was ushering in much-needed changes over the first few months — and what happened when things started to quickly turn sour.
How 16-year-old Marina got on the regime's radar and wound up in Tehran's notoriously brutal Evin Prison.
The torture Marina endured while imprisoned, and the ultimatum she was forced to accept in lieu of execution.
Why Marina was eventually released from prison, and what she's done with her time since then.
