Mansoureh Shojaee<\/strong> – Jeff and Marcia are an artist and documentarian couple. I met them while they were working on their most recent documentary. While chatting with them casually, which usually is more interesting than the  \u201cofficial discussion\u201d  people have, we came to know about each others\u2019 taste in art and literature. While we were doing this, we came to know how much more we have in common. <\/p>\n

One of the things that we share is the love we all have for Joan Baez, who has been the singer of songs of peace and justice for over fifty years, since the social movements of the late 60s in Europe until today.<\/p>\n

Jeff and Marcia have numerous friends all over the world. One of their friends, Bill Shipsey, is the founder of Amnesty International\u2019s “Art for Amnesty,\u201d and also a friend of Joan Baez. He told them that Joan Baez is coming to Paris in February 2019 to perform. During their conversation, these three artists decided to introduce me to Baez in Paris. <\/p>\n

Jeff, Marcia, and Bill told me about their wonderful decision. Without hesitation, on the wings of the heavenly voice of Joan Baez, my mind flew back to Iran. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
