This week our stories include: the escalating and heart-wrenching
refugee/migrant crisis, the fate of two Al Jazerra journalists, two
sisters "sentenced" to be raped, and much, much more. We also have information about Amnesty International's URGENT ACTIONS, Amnesty International regional conferences,
and online petitions. Be sure to check out our list of videos and
Calendar of Events. We have also added another NEW blog topic on Open
Forum, But what would “gun control” ideally involve?
Thank you so much to our members who have sent information for us to
distribute. We are reaching about 600 people each week and your efforts
help to keep us all informed and give us opportunities to take action. Just a reminder:
If you have items that you would like posted on our website, Weekly
Update, Facebook, or Twitter, please send your news items, petitions,
