November 01, 2005 FAST for JUSTICE IN GUANTANAMO RAMADAN FAST -- SPECIAL VIGIL IN SOLIDARITY WITH HUNGER STRIKERS
NOVEMBER 1st VIGIL 1pm 26 Federal Plaza New York, NY. (there will also be an evening event/IFTAR 4-6 pm) The Shame and Horror of Guantánamo is known around the world. Since early 2002, hundreds of men have waged desperate hunger strikes to protest their detention without trial. The current hunger strike began in August 2005 with over half of the estimated 540 prisoners participating. Many are now prepared to die if they do not receive a fair hearing or humane treatment. Mnay are also being brutally forcefed by riot guards. Has the community forgotten these men? It is time WE do something.
PLEASE join the Center for Constitutional Rights & the New York Coalition of Civil Liberties, Civil Rights, Muslim and Other Religious Communities in a
Fast for Justice on November 1, 2005 to show your solidarity.
Will we accept this dirty secret forever?
