More than one hundred declared supporters of democracy, free communication, and peace in Iran gathered at Copley Square in Boston on Saturday afternoon, as widespread protests against the present regime continued one week and one day after an illegitimate election. |
|
The diverse crowd appeared to be just over half non-Iranian, in conversation and to a very untrained-at-profiling eye.
Chants included "Stop the brutality," and "Iran Election Fraud!"
Organized nationally by Where Is My Vote, which presents itself as a voice for the Iranian diaspora, and locally online with postings on Craigslist, Yelp, and especially a Facebook event page.
Your neutral, unbiased reporter held a sign "SOLIDARITY WITH IRANIAN PEOPLE".
