NASHVILLE, May 7 /Standard Newswire/ -- Roxana Saberi, a freelance journalist, who often covers the conditions and plight of women in Iran was arrested in February 2009, and is currently being held in the notorious Evin prison in Iran. Roxana has been sentenced to eight years in prison, after a closed, quick and baseless 'trial'. She has been on a hunger strike for over twelve days.

Governments can use diplomatic means but that only goes so far as we have seen, but YOU, as a world citizen, can make a difference! A coalition of world citizens corporately, can have a huge effect on political actions and move decisions. We are asking all women, reporters, journalists, media agencies, non-profit, religious, or women's organizations, corporations who conduct business in Iran, and anyone concerned about human and women's rights from around the world, to please go to the link below and find your country's Iranian embassy address. Send an instant e-mail to the embassy in your country or area and also mail a green envelope to them, stating inside RELEASE INNOCENT ROXANA SABERI. Also, send an e-mail to the United Nations Iranian representation, with the message, RELEASE INNOCENT ROXANA SABERI, at the link below; please send the United Nations a green envelope with the same message. The Iranian embassies and the U.N. both need to be bombarded, with 1,000,000 or more green envelopes petitioning for her immediate release.

What else can you do to help? Addresses, phone numbers, and instant e-mail form letters can be found via this link. In addition to mailing a green envelope with a RELEASE INNOCENT ROXANA SABERI message inside, to your nearest Iranian embassy, also take one minute to call the Iranian embassy in your country and relay the message.
