..
We saw nothing but beauty in this one-day journey,
a journey to stand together, to be each other’s voice, for Iran..
Hundreds of Iranians came from across the U.S.,
with different beliefs, yet one shared purpose:
to echo the voices of people back home..
Yesterday, walking around the gathering felt like walking in Tehran,
eyes meeting with warmth and love,
because the truth is, shared pain brings us closer..
Today we are filled with hope,
filled with pride for our people,
our culture, our history,
and our kindness..
And do not forget this:
As long as even a single Iranian breathes beyond the borders of our homeland, your voices will never be forgotten.🤍🕊🫂
