AI Madison Group #139 Weekly Update - November 6, 2015

Greetings Everyone!
     This week we are again featuring two more cases from the 2015 Write for Rights campaign. Please consider reading about their cases and signing today. Also, according to United Nations Human Rights, "globally, one journalist is killed every 5 days, with the vast majority of cases never properly investigated or resolved."  Amnesty is committed to freedom of speech, the rights of journalists, and the important role journalists provide by shedding a light on human rights throughout the world. Join us this week as we continue to write petitions, read about human rights news stories, and share links. Thanks for supporting Amnesty International.
