4 November: Vigil outside the US Embassy, London Liberty and Justice for All...
On 4 November 2008, the American people will go to the ballot boxes to vote for a new president, heralding a change for the first time in 8 years. Pitched against each other in a battle of words, both the main candidates have stated their commitment to change and to closing down Guantánamo Bay. The messages given out to the American people and the international community on the issue of US foreign policy has been more of a mixed bag.On 4 November, the London Guantánamo Campaign invites you to join us for a vigil outside the US Embassy to call on the new American government to commit to upholding human rights and peaceful, legitimate solutions to domestic and foreign issues. Eight years of neo-imperialism, illegal wars, torture, extraordinary rendition and the flagrant and shameless abuse of human rights have not made the world a safer and more secure place but instead have led to economic and social crises, fear, insecurity and terror. We also call on the American people to hold their politicians to their commitments to human rights both at home and abroad. VIGIL: OUTSIDE THE US EMBASSY GROSVENOR SQUARE, MAYFAIR, W1A 1AE (NEAREST TUBE: BOND STREET/MARBLE ARCH) WITH SPEAKERS AND A CANDLELIGHT VIGIL 6-8PM SPEAKERS INCLUDE ANDY WORTHINGTON AND YVONNE RIDLEY For more details, please call 07809 757 176 or email
