| Description: |
Join us for readings from Poems from Guantanamo: The Detainees Speak, edited by Marc Falkoff, attorney for seventeen Guantanamo prisoners. A collection of poems written by detainees at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, the book is available only because of the efforts of pro bono attorneys who submitted each line to the Pentagon for scrutiny.
These poems – some originally written in toothpaste or scratched into foam cups with pebbles – poignantly illustrate the very un-American human rights violations our country is committing in the name of “freedom.” This event is co-sponsored by the ACLU of Ohio and the First Unitarian Church Social Justice Committee. |
