Amnesty International Madison Group #139 Weekly Update - November 20, 2015

Greetings Everyone!     Did you change your Facebook page to the colors of the French flag? Did you call your loved ones to see if they were safe? Recent terrorist attacks in Paris, Beirut, Syria, and Iraq have left many of us stunned, outraged and more resolute in our quest for human rights. As we show solidarity with the victims of these attacks, Amnesty International also continues to to work on behalf of the fleeing refugees from repressive countries. Let us move forward as we continue to "shine a light."
     We continue to focus on our 2015 Write for Rights Campaign. If you haven't signed a petition, please do so today. Each of our Weekly Updates highlights two of the ten cases but you can read about each case and sign online petitions here.
