Champlain Valley Amnesty International will host a Write for Rights event this Saturday for local activists to call attention to the discrimination, abuse, intimidation and violence that human rights defenders face and to call on governments to protect their rights. This event is one of thousands that will be carried out throughout the United States and countries worldwide.....the world's largest human rights letter writing event! Stop in anytime at the Essex Brownell Library between 10-2 this Saturday, enjoy a homemade cookie and write a letter that can change someone's life! This event, now in its 57th year, has helped to free people defending their rights....your letter, together with thousands of others, is so powerful. Hope to see you all there. Everyone of any age is welcome!
