Show Notes
Peyvand Naimi, a Bahai in Iran, faces torture and mock executions despite being locked up during protests. Authorities accuse him of violence, but his faith forbids it. Amidst regional unrest, discrimination against Irans Bahais is escalating. Mark Ruffalo, Rainn Wilson, and Penn Badgley highlight Naimis plight. Parisa Lotfi, an Iranian Bahai who fled to Anchorage, shares her escape from religious persecution. Decades of oppression since the 1970s revolution have labeled Bahais as spies for Israel, despite no real ties. Their faith promotes truth and justice through peaceful means, carrying hope in dark times.
