The Green Scroll Campaign

To generate ongoing media attention about the struggle of the Iranian people The Green Scroll of Freedom made its public debut on July 25, 2009, in Paris, France in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower, encircling a large portion of the Champ de Mars.

For this safety reason, the NYPD required that the Scroll be cut up into fifty (50) foot sections, and carried across the Brooklyn Bridge on cardboard poles.

On November 15, 2009 (also World Students Day), the Green scroll was marched across the national mall, starting at the base of the Washington monument and finishing at the steps of the U.S. Capitol building.

In the United Arab Emirates, police blocked Iranian protesters from signing the Green Scroll, the Dubai-based National newspaper reported.

The police told the crowd that "they were forbidden from sending official petitions from United Arab Emirates soil, as Iran and the UAE have diplomatic ties".
