Iran – regime change from within? 29:06

Over the last year, Iran has seen rising levels of resistance to President Ahmadinejad's repressive regime. Strikes by bus workers and teachers, women's rights demonstrations, student occupations and protests by Iran 's suppressed national minorities, especially the Kurds, Baluchis and Ahwazi Arabs. Rejecting the neo-con agenda of US invasion or a preemptive strike against Tehran , human rights campaigner Peter Tatchell asks: What are the prospects for regime change from within – by and for the Iranian people? On his weekly TV programme, Talking With Tatchell, Peter Tatchell interviews Maryam Namazie - Iranian broadcaster, humanist, feminist and communist – on the value of solidarity with the Iranian people's struggle for democracy, socialism and human rights. 16.03.07

  • Ethnic cleansing of Arabs in Iran 28:15 Ethnic cleansing of Arabs in Iran

    Iran is a racist, imperialist state, which is ethnically cleansing its Ahwazi Arab population. Tehran is using sham trials, torture, executions, cultural colonialism, forced re-locations and mass impoverishment to subjugate its Arab population. The south-west Arab region of Iran is the richest in oil, but has African levels of malnutrition, slums, illiteracy and unemployment. Dr Karim Abdian, Director of the Ahwaz Human Rights Organisation discusses the persecution of his people with Peter Tatchell. 20.08.07

  • Solar power is the future of global energy provision and security 30:05 Solar power is the future of global energy provision and security

    Nuclear, coal and gas-fired power are based on finite resources and are environmentally destructive. Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) is the tried-and-tested, safe, non-polluting, cost-effective and permanently sustainable energy technology that can meet the world's entire electricity needs and spur the economic development of many currently arid, impoverished nations. It is the key to future global energy provision and security. On his weekly TV programme, Talking With Tatchell, Peter Tatchell interviews Neil Crumpton, Climate and Energy campaigner with Friends of the Earth. 23.03.07

  • Is Uganda fit to host the Commonwealth Summit? 28:51 Is Uganda fit to host the Commonwealth Summit?

    In November this year (2007), the Commonwealth Heads Of Government Meeting (CHOGM) will take place in the Ugandan capital of Kampala. Some Ugandan opposition activists and human rights campaigners are questioning whether CHOGM should go head in Uganda , given the suppression of democracy and human rights by the government of President Yoweri Museveni. His regime stands accused of rigged elections, censorship of the media, repression of protests, crackdowns on universities and trade unions, homophobic witch-hunts, detention without trial and the use of torture. On his weekly TV programme, Talking With Tatchell, human rights campaigner Peter Tatchell interviews three leading members of the UK chapter of the main Ugandan opposition movement, the Forum for Democratic Change: Desmond Nzaana, Michael Senyonjo and Rosemary Buzabalyawo.

  • Prostitution Behind the Veil [Part 1] 23:45 Prostitution Behind the Veil [Part 1]

    [Part 1] Prostitution Behind the Veil explores a side of Iran rarely seen or talked about. For over a year, director Nahid Persson filmed the everyday lives of two young female prostitutes in Iran as they eked out a living in a country where the profession is banned. The filmmaker often took great risks to follow Minna and Fariba as they sought out customers-men who would often marry them briefly, so as not to violate the laws of Islam by having extramarital sex. The two women are good friends and neighbor, who have experienced the widespread mistreatment of women and the double standards that permeate Iranian society today.
