About this listen

Iran has been here before. For decades the country has gone through cycles of protest and repression at the hands of the Islamic Republic. What makes this cycle different?

In this episode of Throughline from NPR, we speak to two Iranian experts about their view of the past, present, and future of Iran’s protest movement.

Guests:
Ali Alfoneh, senior fellow at the Arab Gulf States Institute in Washington DC

Holly Dagres, senior fellow at the Washington Institute and curator of the Iranist on Substack.
