Memorial in North Carolina for George Floyd

Supporters of democracy in Iran will march and rally at the Minnesota State Capitol on Wednesday.


      The Ad Hoc Committee for Democracy in Iran is organizing the
event on the Capitol mall.


      Paperwork filed with state administrators shows several hundred
people are expected.


      A similar rally in Minneapolis drew about 150 people last month
in conjunction with demonstrations across the United States. 


They
happened as the Iranian government cracked down on huge street
rallies protesting the results of the country's June 12 elections.


      The disputed result kept Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in power.
