In this powerful and deeply moving interview on Refocused Network, Shemaiah Reed sits down with Zolal Habibi — a fearless Iranian-American human rights activist with over 25 years of dedicated work amplifying the voiceless inside Iran.

Zolal's story begins with profound personal loss: at a young age, she witnessed the regime murder her father, a respected writer and political dissident, during the horrific 1988 massacre of political prisoners. That tragedy ignited an unshakeable commitment — choosing not a medical career, but a lifelong path to bring freedom and justice to Iran.

She shares raw insights into:
The pivotal role of women's leadership and empowerment in dismantling tyranny and misogyny
The current climate inside Iran: the opposition and resistance movements (at home and abroad), ongoing protests, and human rights realities
Iran's geopolitical threats: terrorism, warmongering, and nuclear ambitions
Why the voices of political prisoners, dissidents, and freedom-seekers must be heard on the global stage

As someone rooted in both Iranian heritage and American perspective, Zolal bridges understanding in ways that resonate deeply — offering hope, clarity, and a vision for real change.
This conversation is a reminder that one person's courage can ripple into movements that reshape nations. If stories of resilience, purpose, and fighting for what's right move you, this episode is for you.
