Iranian Director Oscar Nominee Wont Be Allowed To Enter Because of Trump's Ban| Unconstitutional

Oscar-winning Iranian filmmaker Asghar Farhadi is nominated for another Academy Award this year, but he may not be able to attend the Feb. 26 ceremony due to Trump's recent executive order suspending entry to the U.S. for citizens of seven predominantly Muslim countries. Farhadi's The Salesman, which follows a couple whose relationship is tested as they prepare for a performance of Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman, is in contention for best foreign-language film Oscar. In 2012, he won in the category for the film A Separation and was named one of TIME's 100 Most Influential People. On Saturday, Trita Parsi, the director of the National Iranian American Council, based in D.C., wrote in a Twitter post that Farhadi would not be allowed in the U.S. to attend next month's awards to support his film.
