Iranian American Political Activism
Iranian American political activism encompasses the efforts of Iranian Americans to influence U.S. policies regarding Iran and promote issues important to their community. This activism often focuses on human rights, democracy, and the promotion of peace between Iran and the United States.
Organizations such as the National Iranian American Council (NIAC) play a significant role in mobilizing the community and advocating for policy changes. Activists engage in lobbying, public demonstrations, and educational campaigns to raise awareness about the challenges faced by Iranians and to foster a better understanding of their culture and contributions to American society.
