United 4 Iran 7/25 Day of Action Heating Up

Posted on | July 22, 2009 | No Comments

Agit-Pop’s video for United 4 Iran (check it out over on the right) has been drawing some attention in these last days leading up to U4I’s July 25th Global Day of Action.

CitizenTube helped get the word out on the actions, taking place in dozens of cities worldwide (including in a city near you)-

In the face of the continued unrest in Iran over the June 12th presidential elections, a group of human rights organizations have come together to launch United4Iran.org – a nonprofit that is pushing for a global day of solidarity with Iranians on July 25th. They’re organizing rallies in dozens of cities across the world, and have partnered with YouTube experts AgitPop to get the word out with the video below.

Most everyone reading this blog knows that new media played a vital role in the citizen uprising following Iran’s Presidential vote.  Blogs, Twitter, and citizen video helped bring people to the streets and spread the word about massive fraud in the voting process.  It’s up to us to keep the ball rolling and win a brighter, democratic future for the people of Iran.

Here’s what you can do:

Check the video, then spread the word.

Check U4I’s site for an action near you. If there isn’t one, use U4I’s tools to start one.

Grab some green, some friends and help make history happen.  Don’t forget to take pictures, video, and share your thoughts with the world.
