7am-7pm vigil @ the White House with the Torture Abolition Survivor's

We must continue to speak and act against the ongoing crime of Guantanamo!

We walk in shame and grief and anger.

We walk mindful of broken promises, hollow words, and bankrupt institutions.

We walk for men torn from their families and homelands, tortured and
abused by this nation, still detained without charge or trial after all
these years.

We walk because we know that torture is wrong, that the indefinite
detention of people without charge is wrong, and that vilification of
South Asians and Muslims is wrong.

 We walk because we cannot and will not accept injustice, forsake hope,
and forget the humanity of the men detained by the United States at
Guantanamo, Bagram, and other detention sites.
