Please join our monthly meetings and local upcoming events
Each month Group 101 writes letters on behalf of victims of human rights abuses with
the assistance of materials distributed by the national Amnesty office. We
also participate in local actions; the most recent one focused on
the violation of human rights at Guantanamo (see below). We have also
collaborated in solidarity with other local groups on the unsolved killings
of women in Juarez, Mexico, as well as the detention of undocumented workers
by ICE at the Regional Correctional Center in Downtown Albuquerque.
