So much to do and so little time and, yet, when we do act, success is so sweet! Did you see the video of Peter Greste when he heard the news that his fellow Al Jazeera journalists were pardoned. Enjoy and let's celebrate together!
Monday, September 28th,
is quickly approaching. The Amnesty Global Day of Action focuses on My
Body My Rights. What will you do? Sign a petition? Wear a t-shirt? Let
us know and we'll post YOUR action in our next Weekly Update.
Finally, the Pope is visiting the U.S. this week. We don't advocate for
any particular religion or for any religion at all but the man is a
world leader who has spoken out regarding the European Migrant Crisis,
promotes the abolition of the death penalty, and advocates for peace. To
read the complete text of his speech given before the U.S. Congress, click here.
Have a wonderful week!
