Show Notes

For ten straight days protests have engulfed many parts of Iran, the most widespread since the Green Revolution of 2009. State media and human rights groups say dozens have been killed in the violence so far. Despite internet restrictions and the harsh reaction of security forces, the protests show no sign of abating. In fact, they’re spreading – demonstrations took place outside Iranian embassies in London and Paris over the weekend. To discuss, Christiane speaks with Marjane Satrapi, the French-Iranian author best known for her illustrated memoir Persepolis, about growing up in Iran during the revolution. 

Also on today's show: Chile's new President Gabriel Boric; Joshua Prager, author of The Family Roe: An American Story.
