Nine Stolen Years – #ReleaseBahai7Now
June 16, 2017, in Videos > Documentary, by Sonjel VreelandNine Stolen Years is a short video produced by the Baha’is of India to appeal for the release of the seven Baha’i leaders in Iran on the occasion of the ninth anniversary of their unjust imprisonment. In nine years, they’ve missed countless family events.
The concept of “stolen years” highlighted in this video is aligned with this year’s awareness campaign by the Baha’i International Community titled #NotAnotherYear. For more information, please visit the website of the BIC.
You can use the hashtag #ReleaseBahai7Now for the campaign at any time, and “Like” the campaign Facebook page here.
