Her Name is NEDA

Gone are the days where the "PEN IS MIGHTIER THAN THE SWORD," but still could be true. As technology progresses and innovations come in today's digital age, a picture is still worth a thousand words. And the picture that became the rallying cry for democracy in Iran is an Iranian woman named NEDA. Her identity is still unknown but her death captured in video posted in Youtube inspired the world looking in what could be another revolution brought by alleged election rigging. All around the world Iranian women expatriates and sympathizers continue their protests shouting the name of the woman named Neda. As we wait for what will become of Iran, let's not forget the memory of one who marched the street and let her voice be heard. Her memory and others who fought for their country. A news bit from CNN... Caution: Graphic discretion is advised.
