Friday night there was a gathering to commemorate the 18 Tir Tehran University uprising in Berkeley. This was also another event in what has become an ongoing set of gatherings in the Bay Area and worldwide to support protesting Iranians inside Iran. The gatherings still attract crowds who believe this to be the least they can do to support people who have given their lives and freedom over their civil rights in Iran. The Green Scrolls were also set up for those wishing to sign them. The crowd ended the demonstration with a candle light vigil for all those who died on 18 Tir (July 8, 1998) and during the recent June and July uprising in Iran.
