Protest Vigil Tonight Against Prison Torture Monday, July 8th - 8:00 PM
At Norwalk City Hall 12700 Norwalk Blvd, Norwalk Corner of Imperial & Norwalk Blvd Organized by The National Religious Campaign Against Torture & California Families to Abolish Solitary Confinement Light a Candle to Dispel the Darkness of Solitary Confinement <http://nrcat.nonprofitsoapbox.com/storage/nrcat/images/nrcat_logo.jpg> TORTURE IS A MORAL ISSUE Dear Friend, The National Religious Campaign Against Torture joins with the California Families to Abolish Solitary Confinement (CFASC) to invite you to attend an important upcoming event on Monday, July 8th. Light a Candle to Dispel the Darkness of Solitary Confinement When: Monday, July 8th at 8:00 PM Where: Norwalk City Hall, 12700 Norwalk Blvd, Norwalk, Corner of Imperial and Norwalk Blvd Why: In July 2011 security housing unit (SHU) prisoners from Pelican Bay went on a peaceful hunger strike asking the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation to support an end of torture and meet their five core demands. Although they were joined by up to 12,000 prisoners in the state, their demands have still not been met. As a result, next Monday July 8, prisoners confined to solitary confinement from around California are beginning their third peaceful hunger strike. Prisoners in the Pelican Bay, Corcoran, and Tehachapi security housing units — and no doubt other prisons — will once again begin a hunger strike. Please join in solidarity with their call for an end to torture. For more information about the five core demands <http://org.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=vAiJDkbLYetxZ0k7Nr4FYoC03nOKcLYe> go here or please call the CFASC at: 714-290-9077 or: 310-677-7445.
