The History of the Islamic Revolution in Iran

The revolution itself temporarily kind of starts to happen on a shia clock beginning in january of 1978 one of the main newspapers in iran publishes this piece that is basically an anti-ulama anti-homani piece. The government responds in force and there's a massacre which sets off a series of protests marking every 40 days after that initial set of that initial massacre. This was a very masterfully politicized as a way that protesters could know when the protests were happening without having to communicate in channels that might be compromised right.
