Bay Area activists and organizations come together to support Iranian Prisoners of Conscience and marking one year of crack down and human rights violations since mass uprising of Iranian people for Human Rights and Democracy in Iran.
Almost 1 year ago,Iranians inspired millions all over the world when they took to the streets to dispute the June 12thpresidential election results and peacefully demanded justice, freedom and democracy for their country. Regrettably, the Islamic Republic responded brutally and clashes between police and protesters left dozens dead and thousands wounded, arrested, tortured, humiliated or disappeared. Today hundreds of protesters and political prisoners are still sitting in Iranian jails for demanding their government be accountable tothem. Iranian dissent and protestscontinue. The Iranian government has been doing everything it can to block protests marking the anniversary of theJune 12th elections. Your participation in these events will be a veryimportant act of solidarity.
PLEASE COME SPEND PART OR ALL OF YOUR DAY WITH US ON JUNE 12.
