As you may know, AI's International
Secretariat is now asking that AI members take a photo of themselves or a group
holding a placard saying #OURFUTURE and email it to aura.freeman@amnesty.org by
Oct. 22. The photos will be used to support Sandya Eknaligoda, wife of the
disappeared Sri Lankan journalist Prageeth Eknaligoda. She will be launching a
new #OURFUTURE campaign poster in Sri Lanka on Oct. 27 (the national day in Sri
Lanka to commemorate the disappeared). She'll also be staging a vigil that day
and asking Sri Lankan MPs to ensure that victims' families can speak without
fear. AI launched its new campaign on Sri Lanka called #OURFUTURE at the
beginning of October. For more images and photos for this new campaign, please
visit tinyurl.com/srilankaourfuture. Thanks for any
help you can give on this action. Jim McDonald, AIUSA Sri Lanka Country
Specialist
