On this edition of Radio Free Acton, we talk with Marina Nemat - author, columnist, human rights advocate, and former political prisoner in her native Iran. How does a person survive imprisonment, torture, and threats of execution, and emerge from the experience with the courage to forgive? And how can her experiences shed light on our response to the problems that plague the world today: Islamic extremism, terrorism, and the refugee crisis?
