She described the horrors of Iran's prisons very well. She also gave an elaborate analysis on the issue of the green wave and where it is heading to and what it actually achieved so far. I wish her the best with the cause that she has dedicated herself to.

Very informative, insightful and behind the scene look of what goes on in Evin and most importantly what to do when you are arrested.

I don't recall ever reading or hearing a basic legal advice of what to do if you are arrested so you don't end up "confessing".  I really liked this interview.

She talked for 19 minutes and every second she had some very important thing to say.  You get a better understandsing of what is going on in Iran and where we are as we speak.

I hope we hear more from her, a lot more.

Everything is sacred.
