Beschrijving

Constitutional scholar Ilan Wurman joins us to discuss his new book, The Constitution of 1789: A New Introduction, offering a fresh look at the original meaning, structure and intent of the U.S. Constitution. Wurman explains how the framers designed a system of limited government, separated powers and federalism that continues to shape today’s legal and political debates. He also explores common misconceptions about the Constitution and why understanding the founding document in its historical context remains essential for Americans today.

Iran Resistance on Grossly Unreported Number of Executions inside Iran with Former olitical prisoner and Member at NCRI Shirin Nariman

Iran’s human rights record remains under intense scrutiny as reports indicate a dramatic rise in executions across the country, a trend that many critics say has received far less international attention than other developments in the region. Former political prisoner and National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) member Shirin Nariman joins us to discuss what opposition groups describe as a deeply troubling escalation in state executions, including cases that are allegedly carried out with limited transparency and little global media coverage. Nariman will examine the impact on Iranian families, the regime’s use of capital punishment as a tool of repression, and why human rights advocates are urging the international community to pay closer attention to the growing number of executions taking place inside Iran. Recent reports from both opposition organizations and independent human rights groups indicate execution numbers have reached some of the highest levels seen in decades.
