This is a very heartbreaking, informative and essential book about the history of Iran and the protests in 2022 after the morality police murdered Mahsa Amini for not wearing her veil the way the law says she should. There are illustrations and short bios of people who were murdered by the regime, and each one is so devastating to read. In additon there's also explanations about wealth inequality, effects of climate change, the extinction of leopards, and schoolchildren being poisoned. This book is a good reminder that the fight for freedom is always worth it.
