Please join us as we start a three part documentary series from BBC about the rise of modern iran.

We’ll hold a short post-film discussion circle to learn about the context of the current war and to dissect the establishment view of contemporary Islamic anti-imperialism.

“Key figures, including former US president Jimmy Carter, tell the inside story of Ayatollah Khomeini's rise to power. The other side of the story is told by top Iranians: Ayatollah Khomeini's close adviser, Grand Ayatollah Montazeri; his first foreign minister, Ebrahim Yazdi; his negotiator with the US, Sadeq Tabatabai; and the founder of Iran's Revolutionary Guard, Mohsen Rafiqdoust.”

During our meal we’ll be watching Part 1 of BBC's Iran and the West.
