Derek Lee is one of 5,200 people sentenced to die in a Pennsylvania prison, and he’s taking his case to the PA Supreme Court. “If their efforts prevail,” @LVikkiml writes for @thenation, “then hundreds, if not thousands, might have a different future.” thenation.com/article/societ…

#Guantanamo22 #CloseGuntanamoNow Today, 2002, the sun-scorched tarmac of Guantanamo welcomed 20 prisoners, shackled, hooded, and silenced—a sinister prelude to what became the US's most infamous, extra-judicial prison. 22 years later, it stands as a living testament to humanity's…

On this day when #Guantanamo turns 22 it is time to stop the suffering wherever possible. More than half those still detained are cleared to go. They could be out of their misery tomorrow

Thread 🧵 1 #Guantanamo prison turns 21 today. Over 21 years, it's held 779 Muslim men & grown from a makeshift, chainlink camp into a sprawling, concrete & steel facility costing $540 million a year. Please, read here ⬇️ theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
Today marks 21 years of #Guantanamo. Gratitude to all those who've fought to expose and close the prison for so long. It has mattered. Nearly 800 people down to 35 is not the direction prisons usually go. Letting that be fuel for the work that lies ahead.

Until there's some end to the genocide in Gaza, it's impossible to prioritize anything else, but if this unbearable darkness ever lifts, we should really think about a day of action for Guantanamo before the election - July 4th, maybe?

@LVikkiml @thenation @AmistadLaw @theCCR There's a growing movement to end the senselessness of death by incarceration. In PA, the incarcerated are joined by family members of crime victims & former prison officials in speaking out for true justice. Read what they say in their own words: buff.ly/3P0OunB
Prison expert @LVikkiml's latest for @thenation is the essence of good, important journalism. Documenting the impact of broken incarceration policies & the stories of those involved, she shows why it matters who we lock up in PA, and for how long. 🧵 thenation.com/article/societ…
Derek Lee is one of 5,200 people sentenced to die in a Pennsylvania prison, and he’s taking his case to the PA Supreme Court. “If their efforts prevail,” @LVikkiml writes for @thenation, “then hundreds, if not thousands, might have a different future.” thenation.com/article/societ…
HAPPENING NOW: Hundreds of Jews are blockading the @POTUS motorcade as it attempts to reach a fundraiser on the Upper East Side, calling on the President — in his first New York City appearance since the crisis in Gaza began — to stop funding Israel’s genocide of Palestinians.
Three years, six versions, and thousands of requests later, “The Flame of Love” is now available for pre-order. One hundred of Rumi’s rarely seen quatrains in one collection translated by yours truly. Link in bio.
Each day the hostages in Gaza are held captive is a day of unimaginable pain. It’s now more than 3 months. The family members I met today deserve to be reunited with their loved ones now. The hostages MUST be released. @ICRC must be allowed to visit & medicines MUST be delivered
Thanks so much to all the campaigners who marked the truly shameful 22nd anniversary of the opening of #Guantanamo yesterday (Jan. 11) by sending in photos (105 in total!) with the Close Guantanamo campaign's 8,036 days poster. SEE ALL THE PHOTOS HERE: closeguantanamo.org/Gitmo-Clock-20…
I’m so heartened by the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court’s decision today to ban life without parole sentences for those under 21. Science and experience tell us that young people have great capacity for change. This decision gives room for redemption. wbur.org/news/2024/01/1…
