Iran Awakening: One Woman's Journey to Reclaim Her Life and Country by Azadeh Moaveni, Shirin Ebadi
5.0
Such an important read. I’ll admit, much of my knowledge of Iran and it’s recent history is a patchwork quilt of stories from the news, which were neither complete nor unbiased. I learned about the US’s complicity and instigation of events in Iran—and I wonder whether most Americans know about this.
I applaud Shirin Ebadi and her courage and pursuit of justice and equality and her fight for the rights of Iranians. She is a most worthy recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize. She is encouraging and inspiring.
I hope that, as Ebadi said at the end of her book, that using political progress to change positions will lead to positive and fruitful interactions. I pray that the rights and freedoms of Iranians will increase.
