Mona Mahmudnizhad (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Mona Mahmudnizhad (September 10, 1965 - June 18, 1983) was an Iranian Bah?'? who, in 1983, together with nine other Bah?'? women, was sentenced to death and hanged in Shiraz, Iran because of her membership in the Bah?'? Faith. Mahmudnizhad's story is the subject of several art works; music artist Doug Cameron recreated Mahmudnizhad's story in a music video, Mona with the Children, which made the pop charts in Canada (#14 for the week of October 19, 1985). The video was distributed throughout the music scene and was effective in bringing the human rights situation of the Bah?''s in Iran to the attention of the public. More recently a play, A Dress for Mona has been produced and currently Jack Lenz is working on a movie called Mona's Dream.
