NCRI Women's Committee Season 1 Episode 11

Executions and suppression of women mark Raisi’s one year in office.

August 3 marked the first anniversary of Ebrahim Raisi taking office in Iran after a rigged election engineered by the mullahs’ supreme leader. 

The past year in Iran saw a staggering rise in executions and the clampdown on Iranian women. That’s in addition to a bankrupt economy with people becoming poorer every day, and a growing army of the unemployed and hungry.

We’re going to discuss the impact of Raisi’s presidency in Iran especially as it relates to women’s rights and conditions.
