Today we talk with Manijeh Moradian about her book, This Flame within: Iranian Revolutionaries in the United States, which documents the formation of Iranian student activists in the US in the 1970s, and their impact on the Iranian revolution.This Flame Within is not only a book about history, but also a book about memory and the importance of retrieving these memories of anti-imperialist pasts against the backdrop of a thoroughly imperial present for the possibilities of building anti-imperial futures. Among many of the things we discuss is the cross-pollination between these groups and groups based in the US working toward Third World Liberation, supporting Palestinian rights, and protesting the Vietnam war. We also connect all these topics to today's situation in Iran, and the Iranian diaspora.Manijeh Moradian is assistant professor of Women's, Gender and Sexuality Studies at Barnard College, Columbia University.

The numbers increased throughout the sixties and seventies. Tens of thousands of Iranian students, more than from any other country, come to the United States to study. At the moment, in 1979, the moment of the revolution, there were 50,000 or more students in the United States. So it's by far the largest foreign student population here. The geographic spread is really interesting. Again, this also changes over time because more and more students start coming, and also because in the 1970s, it became possible for less affluent students to come.For the first time, there were more government scholarships available to certain groups of workers in the oil industry, for example, to their children. They were not blue-collar, but more like white-collar office workers. Before that, it had been mostly wealthy families who could afford to send their children abroad and who had access to education in the first place, but when you have less affluent students coming to less expensive, smaller colleges. By the 1970s, Iran had become so repressive that young people were trying to leave. They want to leave, and some of them want to leave intentionally to become activists and join the Iran student opposition movement.”www.dukeupress.edu/this-flame-withinwww.palumbo-liu.com https://speakingoutofplace.comhttps://twitter.com/palumboliu?s=20

If you've ever wondered why Iran sometimes is, sometimes isn't considered part of Asia, this episode has the answer. Because of the revolution in Iran, I really wanted to talk to a woman from the Iranian American diaspora and had the privilege of talking to Women's, Gender & Sexuality studies professor, Dr. Manijeh Moradian. Manijeh talks about how the U.S. - Iran relationship evolved over decades from the ‘50s to the ‘79 revolution, and beyond. She also shares her thoughts on Western involvement and media coverage of the current feminist Iranian revolution, and what the Iranian people really want.

DEFINITIONS Coup d'état, a.k.a coup, is an illegal and overt attempt by the military or other government elites to unseat the incumbent leader. Western hegemony: domination of the west over other countries through economic, political and military power. The While colonialism used direct military control or hegemony to control or influence a colony, neocolonialism uses economic, political, cultural, or other pressures to control or influence other countries, especially former colonies or dependencies. Shah:the leading figure (or king) of an Iranian monarchy Hijab: headcovering worn by Muslim women MENTIONED This Flame Within: Iranian Revolutionaries in the United States, by Manijeh Moradian Ghosts of Revolution, by Shahla Talebi Fesenjan recipe Feminists for Jina TAKEAWAYS Many of the stereotypes we know are more recent than we think and they happened quickly, seemingly overnight. Pitting minorities against each other is a common way for oppressors to keep the status quo. Iran distanced itself from Asia to avoid being subjugated by Europe. Instead of always working through our governments, we can think of ways to create solidarity between our local grassroots movements across borders. Asian Americans are Americans too, and our marketability should not be restricted to the Asian diaspora, but rather America at large. Women's liberation does not mean assimilating into western culture.

RENCONTRES – Emission présentée par Catherine Schwaab. Elle parlera de la pièce de théâtre « Les Poupées Persanes » qui se joue jusqu'au 30 septembre au théâtre des béliers parisiens avec le metteur en scène Régis Vallée et les auteurs Aida et Kamel Réservation :  https://www.theatredesbeliersparisiens.com/spectacle/les-poupees-persanes/ À propos de la pièce : « Les Poupées Persanes » C'est l'histoire de quatre universitaires dans l'Iran des années 70, de la chute du Shah à l'arrivée au pouvoir du régime islamique. C'est l'histoire, en France, de deux sœurs pas très enthousiastes à l'idée de célébrer le passage à l'an 2000 aux sports d'hiver, en famille. C'est l'histoire d'amour de Bijan et Manijeh, couple mythique des légendes perses. C'est l'histoire d'une jeunesse pleine d'espoir, d'une lutte avortée, d'un peuple sacrifié, de secrets qui s'entortillent, de la transmission dont on ne sait que faire et de l'amour qui ne sait plus où aller. C'est l'histoire à vrai dire, de toutes les révolutions.

Get inspired to set up your own Norooz/Nowruz Sofreh Haft Seen this year! Co-hosts Bita and Beata give an overview of the Persian New Year and encourage everyone to set up the traditional place setting with 7 symbolic items (or with whatever items you can get your hands on!)   Highlights of Norooz (also spelled Nowruz) It is the biggest Persian holiday and celebrated by other nationalities and countries as well It means new day and a time of renewal and rebirth Celebrated at the Spring Equinox for 13 days Youngers pay respect to elders, and in exchange the elders give them money or “Aid-e” Ends with “Sezdeh Bedar” - get out of the house on the 13th day for a picnic.    Learn more about Norooz in the Modern Persian Food podcast 3-part series episodes 22, 23, and 24 (see links below).   The sofreh Haft Seen is a special place setting with 7 symbolic items starting with the Farsi letter which has the sound of “s”   Items on the Haft-seen place setting or sofreh can include: Seeb - apple, representing health Seer - garlic, representing good health Somagh - sumac, the color of sunrise  Sombol - fragrant flower, the Hyacinth flower Serkeh - vinegar, patience and aging Sabzeh - the Persian grass or sprouted legumes/lentils, representing growth and renewal Senjed - dried jujube, representing love Samanou - wheat germ pudding, representing patience, power, and bravery Sekeh - coins; representing prosperity Shirini - sweets Additional, optional items often found on a haft-seen setting Mirror Candles Termeh or beautiful old fabric Colored, decorated eggs Fish - live or a representation of them Fresh flowers of any form A special book of poetry or a holy book (tradition being that at the moment of Norooz, clean, new bills are taken from the holy book by elders and gifted to youngers) Framed photos to commemorate deceased family members   Setting up a haft-seen can take different forms. There is a lot of flexibility with how one chooses to set it up. It can be big or small.  It can even be portable! Beata's strategy is to start out with a mirror and then build the haft seen from there. Often Beata will start out with a larger haftseen set up on a table then make it smaller on the days following Norooz. A tray is a clever addition which can be used to move the table setting up if needed, or to even transport it to another place or home altogether.   We encourage you to set up your own haft-seen! Send us your Haft Seen pics and we will share them on IG!   Ask the Beats!

In this episode, Rustin is joined by Manijeh Nasrabadi, Professor of Women’s, Gender and Sexuality Studies at Barnard College. She is the author of the forthcoming book, Neither Washington, Nor Tehran: Iranian Internationalism in the United States (Duke University Press, 2020). Manijeh speaks about her research on the Iranian Students Association, which was founded in 1952 by the Iranian Embassy and the CIA to support and monitor Iranian students studying at American universities. Over the course of the 1960s, leftist students maneuvered to take control of the leadership positions of the ISA, and gradually transformed the organization into a radical Anti-Shah opposition group. Within the Cold War context, members of the ISA found themselves entrenched in the anti-war, anti-imperialist, and civil rights movements of the day. Utilizing first-person interviews and archival work, Dr. Nasrabadi not only traces these intersections, but she also highlights how ISA members recall their hopes for the 1979 Iranian Revolution and their disappointments in its aftermath. Rustin closes out the episode with “Lalai,” a political song performed by the Confederation of Iranian Students Choir in Munich in 1969.

Over the course of the 1960s, leftist students maneuvered to take control of the leadership positions of the ISA, and gradually transformed the organization into a radical Anti-Shah opposition group. Within the Cold War context, members of the ISA found themselves entrenched in the anti-war, anti-imperialist, and civil rights movements of the day. Utilizing first-person interviews and archival work, Dr. Nasrabadi not only traces these intersections, but she also highlights how ISA members recall their hopes for the 1979 Iranian Revolution and their disappointments in its aftermath. Rustin closes out the episode with “Lalai,” a political song performed by the Confederation of Iranian Students Choir in Munich in 1969.
