This location is shown only to members

Honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.!
Shut Down Guanatánamo Bay Prison!
Stop torture! End arbitrary detentions!
Stop trying to fight terror with terror!

Celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. Day this Monday, January 18th, by demanding the US government close Guantanamo Bay and abolish torture. Witness Against Torture has put out a national call to action on this one year anniversary of Obama's promise to close the prison:

Obama is on track to break this promise and not deliver hope to those who need it the most.

Come early and wear an orange jumpsuit to demonstrate the suffering of Guantanamo prisoners. We expect many commuters will see our action outside Park Street.

Please repost this announcement wherever appropriate. If you are a part of an organization, also please consider endorsing and send a speaker to share a few minutes about why your group cares about this issue. So far we are Stop the Wars Coalition, Boston May Day Committee, the July 26th Coalition, and Anarchist Black Cross.
