Beginning with the arrest of Marzieh Hashemi of Press TV, we look at the relationship of the US and Iran and the "threat" Iran poses to Israel. Then we look at the case of a local activist silenced because her cause is not on the approved list. Today's episode contains content from Catherine Shakdam and Dr. Jack Dresser. We also report on a local activist and friend whose address to the local Womxn's March was silenced by the organizers because she wasn't fighting the correct oppression.  

This week's show is all about lobbying at the state level with the author of the Indivisible States Guide, Jiggy Athilingam.

We also have a preview of the 2019 Seattle Women's March with the co-lead of the programming committee, Liberty Harrington. And we close out the show with our weekly calls to action with Indivisible WA 8 team leader Stephen Wilhelm.

In the first ever session of Seats At The Table, Christina talks to her good friend, Zareen, about reflecting on direct action, being a Muslim American at the Women’s March, and smiling for photos. --- Get to know the guest: Smart, kind, passionate, Zareen Rahman is just starting to scratch the surface of her potential. Born and raised in the golden state (named for her relentlessly sunny personality of course), she studied Business Economics at the University of California, Irvine. In her final year, she became the Runway Director for Fashion Fighting Famine, a non-profit organization that blends charity and fashion through an annual runway show and bazaar extravaganza. Voila! Zareen’s love for doing meaningful work while having free license to boss people around was born. After graduating, she tried doing the whole corporate Accountant/Finance thing but she eventually found her dream job as a Finance and Operations Manager at a national non-profit. She’s very passionate about social justice and is dedicated to creating change and equal chances for all. In her spare time, she is studying for her GMATs and plans to start a blog combining her love for fashion, fabulous women of colour, and intersectional feminism. --- Special thanks to: Zareen Rahman https://www.instagram.com/zareenrahman/ https://www.instagram.com/brilliantresilientbabes/ Logo design by Sukanya Ray www.sukanyaray.com Seats At The Table theme by Tyler Freedom https://soundcloud.com/tenlittlerabbits
