And as a woman born in a theocracy that doesn’t allow women to go to the sports arenas, I wanted to finally go to a stadium 🏟 and I finally went to watch @warriors in their stadium. What a moment!! What a feeling! Pure joy!
When I got out of prison in Iran the first thing I wanted to do was watch @warriors basketball. For the first time in my life they were the best team in the world. 6 years later they still are. I’m at the #NBAFinals2022 to report on what makes them special.cbsnews.com/amp/sanfrancisco…

فکر می‌کردم غم‌انگیزتر از دیدن نوزاد توی کیسه در حال بیرون اومدن از سطل آشغال نیست. تا اینکه دیدم پای بچه ۱۱ ساله رو از زیر آوار درآوردن، انداختن توی کیسه و دادن دست باباش.
از پزشکی قانونی، بیمارستان، سردخونه، هیچکس نیست اونجا؟

We are heartbroken by and strongly condemn the killing of American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh in the West Bank. The investigation must be immediate and thorough and those responsible must be held accountable. Her death is an affront to media freedom everywhere.

Shireen Abu Akleh was a Palestinian icon. She was also an American citizen.
The United States should not rest still until it has held the Israeli authorities (who bear responsibility as occupying forces) accountable.
This should be a non-partisan, national issue.

اختلاف در دیدگاه‌های سیاسی نباید باعث شود زندانی کردنِ فعالان مخالف جمهوری اسلامی را محکوم نکرد و از حقشان در برخوردی از آزادی بیان و اندیشه دفاع نکرد؛ حتی اگر آنها هیچگاه از ما دفاع نکرده باشند. نقد عقاید همدیگر نباید باعث شود که دیکتاتوری را فراموش کنیم!

When @yeganehrezaian and I visited @JMWFineArt studio we asked him if he would create one of his unique collage portraits of our friend #AnthonyBourdain. He agreed and the finished piece just arrived.
John’s work and process are extraordinary. #ROADRUNNER

A law designed to combat online harassment in Iraqi #Kurdistan is being used by the powerful to silence critical journalists. I had hoped back in 2008 that Erbil would buck the regional trend and allow independent journalism. Seems not. cjr.org/special_report/iraq-…
