A PUBLIC RALLY IN SUPPORT OF VICTIMS OF
TORTURE
Trafalgar Square, London
Sunday 26 June 2011, 2-4pm
“This is a day on which we pay our respects to those who have endured the unimaginable. This is an occasion for the world to speak up against the unspeakable.” Kofi Annan, former UN Secretary General

Since 1998, June 26th has marked International Day in Support of Victims of Torture. In spite of laws to protect freedoms, torture remains prevalent throughout the world. Men, women, children and entire communities are subject to unspeakable atrocities and the effects that live with them long after the violence ends. We invite you to come and stand up against these atrocities, and join us in solidarity with the victims.
Organised by the London Guantánamo Campaign
