Bay Area Marks the 1-year Anniversary of the Iran Uprising

The Iranian community in the Bay Area came out strong once again to commemorate the 1 year anniversary of the mass uprsing for human rights and democracy in Iran. ROTM performed for hundreds of attendees at the evening rally at Union Square in San Francisco.




Earlier in the day, we combined two global icons by marching the world-renowned Green Scroll to the Golden Gate Bridge. The Green Scroll is a 2,000 meter piece of fabric signed by Iranians in hundreds of cities throughout the world in 2009 declaring that Ahmadinejad is NOT our president, and listing a set of demands for our brothers and sisters in Iran, including basic human rights, and free and fair elections. The Green Scroll is the longest petition in human history.
