Our message:
We demand of the Islamic Republic of Iran: FREE ALL POLITICAL PRISONERS NOW
We say to the U.S government: NO THREATS OR WAR MOVES AGAINST IRAN, LIFT U.S. SANCTIONS

This struggle remains more urgent than ever. Hundreds remain locked in Iran’s dungeons, tormented, tortured or sometimes executed. Now the blood-stained criminal Ebrahim Raisi has been installed as president and may address the UN. Just recently five courageous prisoners, including Nahid Taghavi and Mehran Raoof, were unjustly sentenced for nearly 11 years in prison on trumped-up charges of “propaganda against the state” and allegedly being part of groups banned by IRI Sharia law.
Shortly afterward, their lawyer along with other lawyers and activists were arrested, like attorney Nasrin Sotoudeh and so many others, for heroically standing up for the rights of others at great cost to themselves.
We refuse to let these illegitimate outrages go unopposed or compromise our just demand that all political prisoners held by this lawless theocratic regime be freed!
