Community Forum: Torture Scandal at Abu Ghraib
Join Amnesty International, distinguished speakers and fellow community members at a community forum to share perspectives and to speak out against torture and human rights violations in Iraq and around the world. Take this opportunity to learn more about how the treatment of Abu Ghraib prisoners undermines the legitimacy of the US-led occupation of Iraq and how you can take action against such atrocities.
Everyone is encouraged to attend on Thursday, June 10, from 6 to 7:30 p.m., at World Vision (300 I St. NE; Union Station Metro). For more information, contact Anusha at 202/544.0200, ext. 275, or send an e-mail.
