    Discussing Death, Protest & Human Rights in Iran | Elica Le Bon (#85) Dec 23, 2022
    Show notes

    Attorney and activist Elica Le Bon joins DEAD Talks for a powerful and unflinching conversation about death, grief, and human rights in Iran. This episode explores how the tragic death of Mahsa Amini sparked a worldwide movement, while also examining the cultural desensitization toward death in Iranian society.

    Elica, who has spent over a decade as a defense attorney and advocate, shares her own family’s history of loss and struggle while also shedding light on the current landscape in Iran. Together, we discuss the personal and collective grief of the Iranian people, the fight for justice, and how death often becomes both a catalyst for change and a reflection of resilience.

    This raw and honest dialogue balances the gravity of loss with moments of humanity and levity, as we try to make sense of death’s role in both private grief and public revolution.
