List of Persian/Iranian Events for 2009-06-28

Feeling left out of the political process?
The Iranian-America community is one of the wealthiest groups in the United States. We pay more taxes per capita than almost all other ethnic groups. We have succeeded in almost all fields
SO WHY DON'T WE HAVE ANY POLITICAL INFLUENCE IN THE US?!

Come learn how YOU can gain political influence, and how the Iranian-American community can become a political force!

Learn how to:
• influence policy beyond voting and donating money
• frame an issue for maximum impact on an intended audience
• write effective letters to be published by newspaper and magazine editors
• set-up meetings with your elected officials

The workshop is interactive and the participants will be forced to question previously held beliefs about influence and power in the American political system, while also meeting other active Iranian Americans in the area.
