Good day to you all. I tried to join the backstage live stream for Magan. Time set at 9pm Central European Time on Aug 1st and every attempt I’ve made says there another ongoing meeting. Any insight would be lovely thanks! Another note is it says it’s the podcast with Goldie Hoffman in July. Am I doing something wrong, thanks again
Hi Sara & Yasmine, I had tried to sign up for the last 2 podcasts when the emails went out but the Google Calendar link didn’t work so I wasn’t able to, and then I realized today that I didn’t get a reminder email and the podcast was no longer visible on Jasmine’s backstage pass website. I also can’t register for the currently listed future podcasts as the google calendar link still isn’t working. Maybe it’s specific to iOS, however, I’d love to be a part of the live events again so would be grateful if this were available.
Thanks, Rochelle
Hi Sara, thank you for this response and for clarifying both the postponement and the calendar/registration process. I’m glad I didn’t miss it and will look forward to the next interviews Yasmine does. Have a wonderful week! :)
Hi everyone, Several Portuguese media outlets falsely reported today that Iran has abolished its mandatory hijab law, claiming the country has dropped the mandatory hijab law. Was there any recent ruling or legal development in Iran that may have been completly misinterpreted and led to this misinformation? Perhaps is related to other laws trying to increase the penality? Such an embarassment... https://www.publico.pt/2025/05/25/mundo/noticia/conselho-seguranca-irao-suspende-lei-obrigatoriedade-usar-hijab-2134285 https://www.lusa.pt/article/45036746/conselho-de-seguran%C3%A7a-do-ir%C3%A3o-suspende-lei-de-obrigatoriedade-de-usar-hijab https://zap.aeiou.pt/irao-suspende-lei-que-obriga-as-mulheres-a-usar-hijab-680205
The Regime would never abolish mandatory hijab laws. There was an argument in the Parliament this week but it’s all smoke and mirrors. There was also a demonstration inside Iran in support of Palestine where some women attended without hijab, but that’s also the government controlling the narrative, trying to show the world that even women who are against the hijab, would stand in solidarity with hijabis and in support of the Palestinian cause.
I just listened to this episode from July 2024 and I would love to follow Yasmine but it seems her instagram is no longer, or it's changed perhaps?
Thank you, Carolyn. I hope she is well. Her husband is also an amazing voice but I miss her dearly. 🙏
We look forward to seeing you in the next one, too!
