Women Issues in Iran.Women's restrictions in Iran are an issue that gradually has become more extreme in 43 years. Following the Islamic Revolution, the country's political climate has affected its culture. The reality that women face in Iran is an oppressive patriarchal system that comes from the twisting of certain teachings within Islam by the men in power. Sadly, this ideology has also been taught and strongly pushed in schools starting as early as kindergarten. This is to ensure that these ideas are infused into the psyche of these young children. Girls are also groomed to believe that this is the truth. The reality is that when they grow up the power is in men's hands. They have the "right" to restrict women, to own women, to treat women like they are property..

In the year he spent teaching at Borrego Pass, a remote Navajo community in northwest New Mexico, Kurt Caswell found himself shunned as persona non grata. His cultural missteps, status as an interloper, and white skin earned him no respect in the classroom or the community—those on the reservation assumed he would come and go like so many teachers had before. But as Caswell attempts to bridge the gap between himself and those who surround him, he finds his calling as a teacher and develops a love for the rich landscape of New Mexico, and manages a hard-won truce between his failings and successes.
