Description

A fresh round of public anger is growing in Iran, and the focus is now on a series of suspected school poisonings, which may be targeting girls and young women. Suzanne Kianpour, a foreign affairs correspondent for BBC News, explains why Iranians fear it could be “retaliation” for the women-led protests over the death of Mahsa Amini.And in headlines: Israeli military forces killed at least six Palestinians during a raid in the occupied West Bank, the Justice Department found widespread racist abuse by the Louisville police department, and a recent study shows there are more single women than ever before.Show Notes:POLITICO Magazine: “The Women of Iran Are Not Backing Down” – https://tinyurl.com/yc2cr2cyWhat A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastCrooked Coffee is officially here.
