I feel very strongly about Guantanamo Bay - especially about people’s awareness and the ignorance that fuels a lot of people’s misconceptions of the prison and its people.

- is this how we treat humans that are innocent until proven guilty? -

Tomorrow, April 16, the American people may finally get a chance to see secret legal memos prepared by the Bush administration to justify the CIA’s illegal torture program.

Under an agreement with the ACLU, the Obama administration is now considering the release of four memos written by the Bush Justice Department, in 2002 and 2005, that were used by the Bush administration to provide legal cover for its abusive interrogation techniques.

Click this link to watch a new ACLU video about the secret memos, and the need for the Justice Department to appoint an independent prosecutor to conduct a thorough investigation of torture crimes.

We have a right to know how the Bush administration circumvented the law and justified violating human rights. Americans should never be afraid of learning the truth about their government.

Thank you for supporting this fight for accountability.
