Mahsa Amini was a young 22 woman who was murdered brutally in Iran after supposedly not wearing her hijab ‘properly.’ Iran has strict hijab laws and enforced them strictly. In this episode we discuss her story and echo a message so important: human rights are being violated, for something so trivial as our clothing, and we need to speak out. So, spread her name and story. We hope everyone learns something from this episode. #mahsaamini
