Protesters in Tahrir Square in Egypt.
VPR Presents New York Times correspondent Nazila Fathi on the similarities and differences between these two protests. Why over six months of protest in Iran did not lead to any change while protesters in Egypt forced Mubarak to leave in less than a month?
Fathi also offers a top-ten list of differences between the two countries. She spoke at Dartmouth College on May 5th as the Bernard D. Nossiter '47 lecture at The Nelson A. Rockefeller Center for Public Policy and the Social Science.
