DESCRIPTION:Program will feature dinner, music, film (see film info below), and panel 
 discussion with human rights, legal and torture survivor experts. The goal 
 of this event is to generate support for Berkeley's Cleared Guantanamo 
 Detainee Resolution. \n\nBackground: January 2011 marks the 10th year 
 Guantanamo Prison has held innocent detainees, some of whom have been 
 tortured, who have been completely cleared by the Bush Administration, but 
 who can't return to their home countries because it's unsafe and no other 
 countries have agreed to take them. Berkeley's City Council has been asked 
 to pass a resolution asking Congress to remove the barriers to resettling 
 cleared Guantanamo detainees in the United States, and to invite one or two 
 cleared detainees to settle in Berkeley. Similar resolutions were passed by 
 Amherst and Leverett, Massachusetts in 2009; Berkeley will be the first 
 city in California and the third in the nation to pass such a resolution. 
 Come hear about the Resolution and ‘meet’ some possible detainees for 
 Berkeley. \n\n\nFilms include ‘Ending U.S.-Sponsored Torture Forever’ 
 by the National Religious Campaign Against Torture; excerpts from 
 ‘Reckoning With Torture’ made for Berkeley Says No To Torture Week and 
 ACLU; and ‘Outside the Law: Stories from Guantanamo’, by Andy 
 Worthington.\n\nCo-Sponsored by Codepink Golden Gate Chapter and BFUU's 
 Social Justice Committee\n$15 suggested donation includes dinner and 
 program. No one turned away. Wheelchair access\n\nPh:510-841-4824\n\nFor
