"Activism pays the rent on being alive and being here on the planet...If I weren't active politically, I would feel as if I were sitting back eating at the banquet without washing the dishes or preparing the food. It wouldn't feel right."   Alice Walker
Mission:
AI is an independent, worldwide movement impartially for the release of prisoners of conscience who have neither advocated nor used violence; fair and prompt trials for political prisoners, and an end to torture and execution in all cases.

"Peace is not a distant goal that we seek, but a means by which we arrive at that goal."
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
