Description
Footage from Iran shows girls and women removing their hijabs in protest. But when the videos end up on Tiktok some of the complexity around the veil is going to get lost. Tapestry spoke with Homa Hoodfar, on the meanings of the veil in Iran and Islam.  Peak into our voicemail as we hear from Iranians across Canada on their hopes and fears. Kiana Karimi speaks about what it means to discipline your hope so it’ll be there for you when you need it most.
