DESCRIPTION:January 11th marks 24 years since the shameful opening of Guantánamo Bay 
 Detention Center. \n\nThe military detention facility at Guantánamo Bay is 
 a glaring, longstanding stain on the human rights record of the United 
 States. It facilitated horrific torture and other grave human rights 
 violations. Today, it continues to hold 15 Muslim men, six of whom have 
 never been charged with a crime and three of whom have long been cleared 
 for release. \n\nThe detention center is a huge waste of taxpayer dollars, 
 costing more than $540 million a year to maintain for just 15 detainees.  
 It has come to symbolize the United States’ brutal use of torture, 
 rendition and indefinite detention without charge or trial – in complete 
 violation of internationally agreed-upon standards of justice and human 
 rights. \n\nPlease join in community with the Global Close Guantánamo 
 Vigils happening around the world on this shameful anniversary. \n\nWear 
 orange, share words, a poem, a song. \nSunday, January 11th at 12pm NOON at 
 United Nations Plaza \n
