Yesterday around 1 p.m. Nazanin and Richard gave their press-conference in Parliament, and yet again I was mind-blown by Nazanin's strength, grace and self-awareness. From the very beginning she knew that it would be a very challenging ordeal, and so it was: she fearlessly said that there were times when she lost hope completely, but she persevered. Her speech was empowering and inspiring—things we all need right now.
