Nashvillian's Tweet Eulogizes 'Neda'

Posted by Brantley Hargrove on Mon, Jun 22, 2009 at 9:52 AM



The young woman shot and killed by the Basiji militia in Tehran has become the center of media coverage of the protests. The pixelated footage gone viral on YouTube has become its icon.

A Nashvillian who describes himself as a guitarist posted this statement on Twitter, according to CNN: "RIP NEDA, The World cries seeing your last breath, you didn't die in vain. We remember you."

I am hoping to see YouTube video of Ahmadinejad's and Khamenei's heads on pikes.

I'm the "guitarist in Nashville" whom posted that Tweet. Incredible sadness for me to see such a tragic death. I've composed "SONG FOR NEDA" in her honor and memory. You can listen here if you'd like:
