Tissa Hami: Iran's Women-Lead Revolution Explained I 286

Iranian comedian Tissa Hami joins us to explain the women-lead revolution taking place in Iran. While it was sparked by the murder of Mahsa Amini when she refused to wear her hijab in public, unrest had been building for a while due to a bad economy, a repressive government and more. Tissa Hami toured as part of the "Coexist Comedy Tour", which can be seen currently on Amazon Prime. Since then she has gone on to found Korsi Consluting, which you can check out here: https://www.korsiconsulting.com/.
