We often hear from the upper middle class, educated youth of Iran complaining about the dictatorship. But what about the majority of youth, the working class young people who live in South Tehran and similar neighborhoods?
Reese Erlich explores how young people compare President Rouhani's government with the populist rule of Ahmadinejad. We'll also hear about how they are responding to conservative hardliners who are tapping into frustrations with high unemployment, and threatening to cancel the nuclear deal.
Thank you to the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting for granting Reese Erlich funding to produce this piece.
