Fahad Hashmi, an American citizen imprisoned under Guantanamo-like conditions 6 blocks from New York's City Hall, needs your help! Can you come to a Monday night vigil to help raise awareness that Bush's Patriot Act is alive and well and torturing people in downtown Manhattan? Join Wallace Shawn, Kathleen Chalfant, Bill Irwin, David Strathairn, Vanessa Redgrave, and others who are raising their voices for justice at the Manhattan Correctional Center, 150 Park Row, at Pearl St. behind the NYC Municipal Building. (There is a map at the end of the video).
Fahad has been convicted of absolutely nothing, yet he has been held in sadistic conditions for over two and a half years. Let's send a message to the media to stop ignoring this abuse, and let Attorney General Eric Holder know he must stop backing Bush's illegal policies and restore the rule of law.
concise and informative video. thank you. like mr. irwin, we're ashamed to say we had no idea.
