July 25

Global Day of Action is a day for citizens of the world to stand together for:

- Civil and human rights for the people of Iran
- Stopping the abuse of power—the imprisonment, torture and killing
- Solidarity with the Iranian people. To our Iranian brothers and sisters: We have heard your voices, and you are not alone.

Find a rally in your city and support Iranians in their fight for democracy.

We are capturing the words of Iranians through #voiceofneda on twitter and on our website and relaying them through video.

She is just one of the thousands of unnamed people who simply vanish without a trace in Iran and around the world.

In Farsi, Neda means “voice”– so those of us who have been blessed with the freedom to use it, will communicate the words of those are unable to to. We will be taking the words of Iranians, their wants and desires, and we will become their voice.

Join us this Saturday anytime from 9:30 A.M.-2:00 P.M. to show your support and get their voices heard.

This project is meant to show universal support–we want to see all races, ages (18 & up) and genders. So pass this along to all your friends, family and coworkers.

Please Note: YOU WILL BE RECORDED and this video will be circulated on internet. You must be 18 or over to participate in this project. Please refrain from wearing anything containing logos or profanity.
