At our monthly meetings, we write several 'urgent action' letters and sign petitions to government
officials on behalf of prisoners whose life and wellbeing are in immediate danger. We also exchange
information on AI campaigns and plan future events. Occasionally, we host a visiting speaker or
watch a video on a human-rights topic.
A few days before each meeting, we send out a newsletter with agenda
items, sample letters to governments, and other news.
To subscribe, contact Wies (607-257-3156) or send an email.

"We could always tell when the international protests were
taking place... the food improved, and the beatings were fewer.
Letters from abroad were translated and passed around
from cell to cell, but when the letters stopped, the dirty food
and repression started again."
