DESCRIPTION: [Description]\n	\nPromo clip @ http://youtu.be/_XFfvV5VdhA\n\nJoin us as 
 we stand in solidarity with prisoners of conscience and all those who have 
 suffered for basic human rights in Iran – to demand an open and inclusive 
 Iran where the voices of all citizens count!\n\nFour years after Iranians 
 rose up, demanding "Where Is My Vote?" the government has proven once again 
 that it is indifferent to human rights. The Guardian Council has 
 disqualified all but eight candidates to run in this year's election - 
 including all the women. Meanwhile, more than 500 political prisoners 
 remain behind bars, including opposition candidates from the 2009 
 elections, who are on house arrest. Iran is not free.\n\nSan Francisco is 
 hosting the first day of Behind Bars: a global action. Music, poetry, 
 dance, speeches and theater will be on display at Justin Herman Plaza, one 
 block north of the Embarcadero BART station.\n\n- Diverse speakers will 
 address the imprisonment of activists, journalists, women, students, 
 artists, and ethnic and religious minorities in Iran.\n\n- Special 
 appearance by Sarah Shourd, the American hiker who was held in solitary 
 confinement for 410 days.\n\n-Musicians include Mohammad Tallani from 
 KIOSK.\n\n- Attendees will be asked to sign petitions to demand the 
 immediate release of all political prisoners in Iran.\n\nJoin us - ALL are 
 welcome! Bring your non-Iranian friends for a taste of Iran's music and 
 spoken arts!\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2013/06/01/18737800.php
