Check out the entire photo essay at Boston.com. Gritty, stirring journalism.

See also the Twitter-storm at #iranelection, where folks are heeding this call from Mr. Mousavi's own Twitter channel, mousavi1388: "We have no national press coverage in Iran, everyone should help spread Mousavi's message. One Person = One Broadcaster."
