YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

On January 20th, 1981, 52 U.S. hostages were released by Iran after 444 days in captivity. The ordeal began on November 4th, 1979, when a group of Iranian students took over the U.S. Embassy in Tehran in a show of support for the Iranian revolution. Now, 30 years later, the American Foreign Service Association hosted a panel discussion with former hostages to discuss their experiences. This event took place at the State Department.
