Demystifying Democracy

– The Seven Ingredients of Influence

a workshop at University of Louisville to build Iranian-American influence in America

Sponsored by the National Iranian American Council and

the Parsa Foundation

Feeling left out of the political process?

The Iranian-America community is one of the wealthiest groups in the United States. We pay more taxes per capita than almost all other ethnic groups. We have succeeded in almost all fields

So why don't we have any political influence in the US?

Come learn how YOU can gain political influence, and how the Iranian-American community can become a political force!

Learn how to:
• influence policy beyond voting and donating money
• frame an issue for maximum impact on an intended audience
• write effective letters to be published by newspaper and magazine editors
• set-up meetings with your elected officials
• to conduct voter registration
