Frequent ‘Grok contributor Amil Imani is an Iranian-born American citizen and pro-democracy activist residing in the United States of America. Imani is a columnist, literary translator, novelist and an essayist who has been writing and speaking out for the struggling people of his native land, Iran. He and his family escaped Iran after the radical Islamic revolution. His observations on the growing Islamo-fascist threat need to be heard and understood by as many people as possible if we are going to stem the tide.
We’ll discuss ongoing events in his home land of Iran. We’ll find out the real scoop behind the players, the real numbers both in terms of the recent sham elections and the deathtoll from recent violence and the government backlash. An email making the rounds this week featured a picture of a beautiful young woman killed in the violence– wearing a Christian Cross around her neck. Amil wrote a tribute piece to her memory, Neda: Angel of Freedom. We’ll ask Amil what he thinks the chances are for real change coming to Iran, and what it could mean for Western/ Islamic relations, long term.
