On September 16, 2022 Mahsa Amini was killed by "morality" police in Iran for not wearing her hijab correctly, as determined by Iranian code. Since then a social uprising has taken over the country with a single cry: Woman. Life. Freedom. Nazanin Boniadi and Roya Piraei join Kevin to speak about what has been lost, the power of women and the ongoing revolution in Iran.
