About

A political activist. I am a Marixst. I was born (1963) and raised in Tehran, Iran. Been involved in politics since the 1979 revolution. After a few years of activities I had to leave iran due to the widespread terror by the Islamic Republic of Iran(IRI), i.e. massacres and mass-imprisonment of political opposition, moved to Europe in 1987 where I learned about the Communist Party of Iran (CPI) led by Mansoor Hekmat. I joined the sympathizer organization of the CPI in 1988 and later on joined the Worker-Communist Party of Iran (WPI) in 1992.

Summary of activities:

  • Workers’ rights; children’s and women’s rights; freedom of speech/expression; students’ and teachers’ rights; Asylem/refugees’ rights; against the IRI; against fascism and racism in Europe in late 80s/early 90s; against political Islam

A number of media appearances including:

  • Short stories written in Farsi
  • Articles/translations published in various Farsi papers
  • Articles in Other languages

Update: September 2010In 2000S I helped out with computer stuff, partly becasue of my skills and partly the need to sit more often due to againg :)

  • Developed a package, CampaigNet, which is an online petitioning and protest letter + NedaMail.  Both of which I donated to WPI and its affiliated organizations for their application in humanist causes. See more
  • Member of the technical team for NCTV (New Channel TV)

I resigned from the above computer stuff about two years ago although I might run a site now and then.
