Be the voice of the Iranian people. Do not let their blood be shed in silence.
I am sharing this message as a plea for help — not for myself, but for 80 million people held hostage by their own government. For days, all phone and internet access has been shut down, leaving us unable to reach them. The people of Iran have taken to the streets with empty hands to demand freedom, and the government answers with heavy weapons. Innocent young lives are being lost in silence while the world remains quiet. I ask anyone who still believes in humanity to stand with Iran.
