What Iranians are saying about the war and their government

Season 2026 Episode 75 | 5m 23s

In recent days, the focus has been on the fragile U.S.-Iran ceasefire, tensions in the Strait of Hormuz, and Israel’s continued strikes in Lebanon. But less attention has been paid to the people inside Iran, those who have borne the brunt of U.S. and Israeli attacks. For that perspective, Geoff Bennett spoke with Holly Dagres. She spent her teenage years in Tehran and now curates "The Iranist."
