"Their stories, poems and artwork are part of the prisoner-led campaign to STOP executions in Iran. The many decades-long repression and inspiring fierce resistance of the people of Iran is a trail that runs from the regime of the U.S. imperialist puppet Shah to that of the Islamic Mullah regime today. The months of August and September are indelible markers for millions across generations of Iranians,"
