her husband richard radcliffe has been calling for a meeting with borisjohnson, because of comments thede, which could mean herjail sentence is increased. i've been speaking to doctor homa hoodfar, a canadian—iranian who was spent time at the same prison as nazanin zaghari ratcliffe and met her there. she began by explaining to me what conditions inside evin prison were like. we were in a locked cell and then we were brought for interrogation. the cells are very small like the size of an ordinary double bed with tall size of an ordinary double bed with ta ll walls size of an ordinary double bed with tall walls and no windows. the lights were on all the time. the cell is usually made for one person but sometimes they put two people there. after the second week i was there. after the second week i was there i was taken from my solitary confinement to a room where nazaneen was there, so i spent one night with her but the next day they moved her because normally they don't put two political prisoners in the same cell so political prisoners in the same cell soi political prisoners in the sam

oriented, and we sat--we were brought into a big room, and in n those days, harvard was separate from radcliffe, which was sort of the female up-the-street school, and so they didn't meet with us for whatever the thinking in those days was. so it was all younung men, and the presidident, whose name was nathan pusey--that was his name--president of harvard, welcomed us with the following speech, and it stuck in my mind. 18 years old at the time. he said, "look at that man on your left," and we all dutifully did that. "look at the man on your right." said, "one of them is going to be a captain of industry, and one of them is going to be a senator. that's where you are, and we're here to teach you how to run the world." that's what he said! you know, you'rre 18 years old, your head is getting larger as the man talks because you're being given this sense of what's expected of you, what's in store for you, almost nigh what you're entitled to when you comome here, and it produces a fundamental human quality that many of you have noticed in graduates of these institutionons--arrogance, mind-bending ar
