Masih Alinejad in Conversation with Rabbi Tarlan Rabizadeh: Women’s Uprising in Iran
Hosted By: American Jewish University
Since 2014, Masih Alinejad has published videos of Iranian women removing their head scarves. “The hijab is the tool the regime uses to control the women and, through them, Iranian society,” says Alinejad. Women across Iran are pulling off their hijabs, lighting them on fire and going to jail for it, or worse, paying the price for freedom with their lives. AJU’s Rabbi Tarlan Rabizadeh, a first-generation Persian American whose family fled Iran in the 70’s, joins in conversation with Masih Alinejad who is at the forefront of Iran’s most recent protests for an important conversation surrounding the future of women’s rights and the safety of Jews in Iran and in Israel.
