The work that Shirin Ebadi and others are doing is truly a life or death matter. Remember to sign the petition in the Urgent Action section of the PeaceJam home page in support of student prisoners of conscience in Iran--and if you are in the Denver area, please come to the PeaceJam events this weekend with Shirin Ebadi! posted 4/16/2012 at 12:24 PM
