The Green Scroll Project comes to DC - Human Rights For Iran Petition

http://www.voices4iran.org - Voices4Iran unfurled the world's longest cloth petition in Washington, DC on November 15, 2009 calling for the world's support for human rights in Iran. The banner calls for the world to NOT recognize Ahmoud Ahmadinejad as Iran's elected President. The supporters also call for condemnation of the human rights abuses in Iran against peaceful protesters and they call for democracy in Iran; where the votes and the will of the Iranian people are recognized by their government.

The Song: Yare Dabestani Man by Jamshid Jam - Dabestan means Elementary School in Persian. Yar means Friend. Man means me. Yar dabestani man means my schoolmate. This is a popular song in Iran, especially among the students movement, and is often recited in gathering and demonstrations.
