I am planning to write on Persian color meaning, but I didn't find any good material. Can you guys just give me an idea what each color means in Persian culture?Thanks.

Anyone know about Kiana Firouz?	[May. 16th, 2010\|12:02 am]The Persians Community
http://coilhouse.net/2010/05/save-the-life-of-kiana-firouz/The main story is there, but the gist for those who are link-phobic: Kiana Firouz is an Iranian LGBT activist, film maker and actress, who has starred in a documentary telling about lesbians in Iran, and she is now at risk of being deported from the UK to Iran to "answer for it". Since punishment for homosexuality there is not very nice (to put it most mildly), there is a petition one can sign here:http://www.petitiononline.com/kianaf/petition.html There is also a movie trailer (NOTE: Some adult content within) here.I'm wondering why this isn't receiving more media attention. Anyone have more info?ETA: As of June 16, she has been granted asylum in the UK. Thanks to everyone who pulled for her!

"Check it right, you ain't white!"	[Mar. 17th, 2010\|12:50 am]The Persians Community
Attention all U.S. residents of Iranian origin or ancestry: when you get the U.S. Census, under Race make sure to check OTHER and write in "IRANIAN" or "IRANIAN-AMERICAN"! The census will determine how hundreds of millions of dollars of government money will be allocated. The opportunity to be counted correctly only comes once every 10 years, so make sure to get it right this time!For more information, see http://www.iranianscount.org.
