Mindful of the "Woman, Life, Freedom"-inspired revolutionary attitude in the Iranian diaspora, in this session Dr. Moradian will talk about her book on the pre-1979 Iranian revolutionaries in the United States. Through this book review and analytical discussion with Dr. Persis Karim, we will try to understand the achievements and failures of the Iranian revolutionaries during the past 5 decades. Dr. Manijeh Moradian portrays the approach of the pre-1979 Iranian revolutionaries in the US as "intersectional anti-imperialism", which among certain Iranian diaspora groups today seems to have been shifted toward a state of "intersectional imperialism" in their pro-sanction and -war attitude.

For example, the Cboe Volatility Index fell from its 2022 peak of 36, which it hit Monday, to around 30 on Friday, a sign of easing tensions. Meanwhile, while the price of WTI crude oil slipped from Sunday’s multiyear high $130 of barrel to $109 a pop. Markets have been expecting heavy restrictions on Russian oil, some of which the U.S. has already imposed, and that would reduce the global supply and bring about even more burdensome inflation.
