Poet Roya Hakakian on the immigrant experience, culture and women’s rights 

Poet Roya Hakakian’s new book, “A Beginner’s Guide to America: For the Immigrant and the Curious,” is for immigrants but also for those in the US to see themselves as others do. The World’s Marco Werman talks to Hakakian about her book and her life in the US along with what she left behind in Iran, and the global feminism movement.
