According to Iranian sources via Twitter and elsewhere, Neda Soltani was a 27 year old philosophy student in Tehran. She was with her father when she was brutally killed on the street.

She has become a martyr, and a symbol, for the uprising for human rights and free election in Iran and she is becoming known for the supporting world.

Neda means voice in Farsi. Voicing is what many women and men are doing just now on the streets and thru all kinds of media.

Later on Sunday 21. June I found a reference on Twitter to a new Wikipedia article: RT @idrawhouses Neda (Iranian protester)From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia http://bit.ly/8cDwu
