Episode Details

There are some 5 million Iranians living in the United States. A large population live in the Monterey Bay and the Bay Area. On this program, we hear from activist/student Elnaz Sarbar, Data Scientist, Azadeh Sanjari, and Santa Cruz City Council member, Shebreh Kalantari-Johnson about what they are hearing from family members. Since the government of Iran cut off internet, it has been difficult for journalists and families living abroad to find out the fate of their loved ones after what appears to have been a mass killing of protesters in Iran.
