Description: With about 700 people in attendance, our February 1 Panel on Empire, Colonialism, and Torture with Oliver Stone was a great success. We want to build on the momentum of this event by inviting to the next meeting of the Illinois Coalition Against Torture, and will discuss 1) A demonstration to protest solitary confinement of prisoners at Terre Haute, Indiana; 2) Passing federal legislation to criminalize torture in the United States; and 3) Planning events for National Torture Awareness Month (June 2013).
