Anchor Lisa Mullins speaks with Iranian musician Sussan Deyhim who moved to the United States after Iran’s Islamic Revolution in 1979. She’s been outspoken critic of Iran’s fundamentalist government ever since. Deyhim dedicates a new song to a young woman who was killed during Iran’s recent Green Revolution. The song is called “Neda’s Eyes.”

Sussan Deyhim is a brilliant star of timeless poetry in voice- We must listen to her Persian voice for peace for love, and for reaching across all boundaries!

I heard the interview on 3-24-2011. Loved it. Her music spoke to my soul. I will purchase the CD and use it for relaxation techniques, a meditation of sorts. I especially loved the Persian prayer and found it so compelling that U2 uses it to open their performances. Thanks for the mind stimulating interview.
