GroundTruth

The events unfolding in Tehran are straight out of rock n’ roll.

So you gotta check out the piece on the Tehran underground band “Hypernova” by our Deputy Editor Freya Petersen, who has been following the group and what it has to say long before the big media caught on to the ground that is shifting inside Iran. The story rocks and the band is kick ass. It is GroundTruth with a drum solo and power chords.

All of our coverage of Iran has been a rock n’ roll opera with many voices behind it who we can not name because we fear for their safety and the safety of their families. Quiet heroes of the truth have been helping us here in Boston and over in Iran. They’ve made it possible for us to bring you voices from the street calling for change, voices of what Nixon would have called “the silent majority,” and voices from the more remote corners of Iran that you won’t hear in the quick, staccato newscasts of the networks

Our editorial team has been delivering an excellent array of coverage every day which you can follow on “Chatter,” the day-to-day, hour-to-hour offerings of what you “need to know” and more from our GlobalPost News Desk.

Keep on rockin’ in the free world.
