For nearly three weeks, Iranians have marched in the streets to denounce the Islamic regime that has ruled for more than 40 years. What started as a response to the killing of a young woman by the so-called "morality police," this uprising, led by young women, is now nationwide. Producer Zeba Warsi has been speaking to and listening to women both inside and outside Iran. Here are their stories.

Editor’s note: One of the videos that purported to show Nika Shakarami, a 16-year-old student protestor is actually of another 16-year-old Iranian student, Sarina Esmaeilzadeh, who was also killed in the protests. We regret this error.
