About this sermon
Saturday marks the one year anniversary of Mahsa Amini's death. Amini died while in custody of Iran's morality police after being arrested for wearing an improper hijab. On Tuesday, the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) released its annual report on Iran urging policy makers to take seriously the grave nature of religious freedom violations in the country. Commissioner for USCIRF, Susie Gelman, joins to give us a little more detail on some of the grim findings and also explains the designation she's recommending to the US government. Gelman's report explains that conditions for women are still extremely restrictive. She shares whether she thinks Mahsa's death will ultimately lead to freedom for Iranian women or whether the country's leaders will continue to double down on their oppression. Iran is almost 100% Muslim. Gelman fills us in on what the conditions are like for the small group of people there who are Christian, Jewish or another minority. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
