The authors share insights from their two books, Teaching Diversity Relationally and Unraveling Assumptions, both published by Routledge.

We cover topics related to decolonizing and Indigenous research methodologies and reclaiming American Indian therapeutic traditions.

ABOUT THE GUEST Joseph P. Gone (website) is an international expert in the psychology and mental health of American Indians and other Indigenous peoples. A professor at Harvard University, Dr. Gone has collaborated with tribal communities for over 25 years to critique conventional mental health services and harness traditional culture and spirituality for advancing Indigenous well-being.

  • Liberation Now Ep 12: Ongoing Uprisings in Iran - Woman, Life, Freedom
    Dec 19 2022
    In this episode, Helen Neville speaks with Iranian American scholar-activists Dr. Mehrgol Tiv and Amir Maghsoodi about the current uprisings in Iran. We cover the nationwide protests and state responses since the murder of Mahsa Jina Amini on September 22, 2022. The guests provide context for the roots of the women-led liberation struggle, and the goals and hopes for Iran and her people.   This episode was recorded on Nov 29, 2022. Since then, the Islamic Republic government has executed two young men for taking part in protests: Mohsen Shekari and Majidreza Rahnavard. As of late-December, Amnesty International and others fear more individuals are at imminent risk of execution by the government.  ABOUT THE GUESTS  Dr. Mehrgol Tiv, PhD (website) (Twitter: @mehrgoltiv) earned her PhD in experimental psychology at McGill University in 2021, where she examined how diverse linguistic experiences related to cognitive processes. Now as a postdoctoral researcher, she further probes the social determinants of cognitive adaptation by assessing the psychological impacts of context diversity and racial identity formation, including among Middle Eastern and North African communities. Mehrgol was born in Tehran, Iran and moved to the United States at the age of six with her family. She grew up in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and now lives in Washington D.C. with her partner and cat.    Amir Maghsoodi, MS (website) (Twitter and IG: @soori_breeze) is a doctoral candidate in his fifth year in the Counseling Psychology Program at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. His interests in psychology center on health and well-being, sense of belonging, and radical healing & liberation of BIPOC folx, with a particular focus on those of MENA/SWANA descent. His mixed-methods dissertation research explores the psychological impacts of racial identity invalidation on MENA Americans (e.g., our legal classification as “white” in the U.S.). He enjoys service to the community and currently serves on the advocacy committee of the American Arab, Middle Eastern, & North African Psychological Association (AMENA-Psy) and on Dr. Kevin Cokley’s Division 45 Presidential Task Force on Cross-Racial/Ethnic Solidarity.  RESOURCES   News and Editorials  BBC reporting of first known execution of Iranian protestors   CNN coverage of human rights abuses in political prisons   Hamed Esmaeilion memoir in Toronto Life magazineAssociation of Families of PS752 Victims   CBC Interview with dissident rapper Toomaj Salehi the day before his kidnapping by Islamic Republic police forces  Washington Post documents Islamic Republic’s tactics of repression  Human Rights Activists in Iran (HRANA) Daily Update on Iran Protest  Videos  VICE documentary, part 1   VICE documentary, part 2  Protest Songs  Baraye (“For”) by Shervin Hajipour (turn on English subtitles)  Amir Maghsoodi’s cover of Baraye  Soroode Zan (“Women’s Anthem”) by Mehdi Yarrahi and Mona Borzouie (Translated lyrics) YouTube page of dissident rapper Toomaj Salehi, who was kidnapped, tortured, and faces execution in Iran  Farsi rendition of Italian protest song, Bella Ciao, played in many global protests and rallies  Relevant Social Media Accounts (mostly Twitter) to Follow  Twitter  https://twitter.com/1500tasvir_en  https://twitter.com/Vahid   https://twitter.com/BlackIranians  https://twitter.com/PriscilliaK  https://twitter.com/sinafazelpour  https://twitter.com/NazaninNour  https://twitter.com/maasalan  https://twitter.com/esmaeilion  https://twitter.com/ps752justice  https://twitter.com/me_too_iran  https://twitter.com/MEMOrganization   https://twitter.com/HRANA_English   Instagram  https://www.instagram.com/1500tasvir_en/  https://www.instagram.com/collectiveforblackiranians/  https://www.instagram.com/from____iran/  https://www.instagram.com/centerforhumanrights/  https://www.instagram.com/middleeastmatters/  https://www.instagram.com/localbrownbaby/  https://www.instagram.com/womanlifefreedom.art/   Academic Statements and Correspondences  AMENA-Psy statement of solidarity with the people of Iran  SPSSI statement of solidarity with the people of Iran  Psychology Coalition at the UN (PCUN) letter to Economic and Social Committee (ECOSOC) of the UN  American Psychological Association's letter to UN High Commissioner of Human Rights  American Psychiatric Association's letter to the UN High Commissioner of Human Rights  Correspondence to Nature by Iranian scholars calling for support of persecuted academic  STAY IN TOUCH!  #LiberationNowPodcast Email: liberationlab.uiuc@gmail.com | Instagram & Twitter: @liberationlab_     EPISODE CREDITS  Music: Amir Maghsoodi and Briana Williams   Podcast Artwork: B.
