Human Rights & Civil Liberties in the Americas -- After September 11
Erica McEvoy
Mon Jan 28, 10:30-11:45am, Twenty Chimneys
No enrollment limit, no advance sign up
Single session event
Josh Rubenstein, director of Amnesty USA's north-east region, will survey the state of human rights and civil liberties across the Western Hemisphere, including in the USA. Both "terrorists" and "legitimate" governments often argue that "the ends justify the means" -- we will examine the consequences that innocent people endure when those who have or want power justify their actions in this way.
