DESCRIPTION:The Santa Cruz Chapter of the ACLU Announces:\n\n$100 A Day -A Film Showing 
 and Panel Discussion with Senator Joe Simitian, Filmmaker Gwen Essegian and 
 Rick Walker\nThursday, April 22, 2010  - 7pm\nSanta Cruz Police Community 
 Room\n155 Center St., Santa Cruz\n\nOn December 10, 1991, East Palo Alto 
 resident Rick Walker was convicted of a murder he did not commit. Linked to 
 the crime by false testimony and questionable legal tactics, Walker would 
 spend th next 12 years of his life in some of California's most dangerous 
 prisons. Once exonerated, he would face yet another barrier to justice: the 
 California State legislature.\nEntitled to one hundred dollars for every 
 day spent falsely imprisoned, Walker's attempts to receive his just due 
 became caught in the partisan battle over the 2003 budget.\nOn the last 
 night of that year's legislative session, State Assemblyman (now State 
 Senator) Joe Simitian challenged his colleagues to put aside their 
 political differences and "show 35 million Californians that we have the 
 right stuff."\n$100 A Day examines this story of gross injustice, political 
 partisanship and the heroic struggle to prove Walker's innocence and help 
 him rebuild his life.\nThere is no charge for the event. It is co-sponsored 
 by the SC Co. Democratic Central Committee, the Democratic Women's Club of 
 Santa Cruz Co. and the Resource Center for Nonviolence.\nFor more info:
