Join in this national demonstration called for by the ACLU and Center for Constitutional RIghts, in wake of the 6 year anniversary opening of Guantanamo, to say SHUT IT DOWN!
In Seattle we will be demonstrating the torture technique of "waterboarding" and engaging in a day of civil resistance!
Come wearing orange, the color of resistance against torture, tyranny and war crimes.
full description & details:
YOUR GOVERNMENT is openly torturing people, and justifying it. Caught destroying evidence of torture, the Bush Regime is every day providing more reasons why they must be driven from office, and their crimes repudiated.
World Can't Wait is part of Shut Down Guantanamo, a protest at the White House led by Amnesty International and the National Religious Campaign Against Torture, followed by a Guantanamo Prisoner Procession to the Supreme Court, and a funereal ceremony remembering the four men who died in custody at Guantanamo, and mourning the death of Habeas Corpus.
