Episode description

Last week I -- Alan Winson -- spent a few days with a committed group of people. They regularly protest and get arrested in a nearly impossible attempt to end the horrors of Gitmo -- the U.S. prison in Cuba which, after over 18 years, incarcerates 40 Muslim men accused of 9/11 terrorism. Most of these men are innocent and have been exonerated; yet, they remain in an isolated hell in Guantanamo. The court trials they demand are beyond them -- maybe forever -- because evidence of being tortured are being destroyed by our government. The members of Witness Against Torture are special humans. In this episode of BCR, Becky and I talked about their ongoing -- and our limited -- commitment to a cause which is right and noble.

Next week, for BCR #78 we talked with members of WAT about why they protest and the world for which they work.
