The wisdom of Ferdowsi's Shahnameh belongs to all who can read it, in Persian or any other language. The message is to Iranians and every one else.
Treasure of Shahnameh is owned by Zoroastrians and those of other faith (Jewish, Christian, Bahaii and Moslems). Epic of Shahnameh should be shared by the Patriots and Socialists alike.
It is with this vision that we brought people together from a diverse religious persuasions, political specturum and ethnicity. To join together and honor their common culture for only few hours every other week.

People like Masood a young Arab speaking leftist who could barely read, Fazel an Iranian Bahaii, Sohrab a pro-Mosadeghi, Iraj a Jewish Iranian who was pro-Bakhtiar, Aghdas a Persian speaking anti-Shah, Naser a neo-fascist pan-Iranist and Hooshang an Azari (non-Persian speaking) pro-Shah. They came together from all walks of life to honor Ferdowsi.
