Listen Later

Neda seemingly had everything—a thriving career, a beautiful home, a loving husband, and a precious baby girl. Her life in Iran seemed secure, even enviable. But beneath those superficial comforts, she had always known the weight of living under a regime that criminalizes womanhood. When Mahsa Amini died at the hands of the morality police, Neda could no longer stay silent. She took to the streets, fighting for the rights of women whose freedom and safety were being stripped away. What she didn’t know was that this act of courage would cost her everything. Branded as a threat, hunted by the authorities, and forced into hiding with her infant daughter, she had no choice but to flee. In this episode, hear Neda’s harrowing journey—from fearless protester to refugee.

This is Neda's journey... part one.
