Join us as we lift up the message of peace in King’s speech Beyond Vietnam -- A Time to Break Silence delivered 4 April 1967, at a meeting of Clergy and Laity Concerned at Riverside Church in New York City. King spoke directly to “…[T]hose who ask the question, "Aren't you a civil rights leader?" and thereby mean to exclude me from the movement for peace…. Our only hope today lies in our ability to recapture the revolutionary spirit and go out into a sometimes hostile world declaring eternal hostility to poverty, racism, and militarism.”

ABOUT US

Amnesty Atlanta members meet twice a month in Atlanta and take action in our communities with movie screenings, tables at concerts, letter-writings, and whatever else it takes to get-out thee word.

Our local Atlanta group 75 is comprised of persons in the metro region who take action to protect human rights locally and worldwide.

We are part of the global grassroots movement of Amnesty International www.amnesty.org, and here in the US, Amnesty USA www.amnestyusa.org.

Amnesty International is a worldwide movement of people who campaign for internationally recognized human rights for all. Our supporters are outraged by human rights abuses but inspired by hope for a better world - so we work to improve human rights through campaigning and international solidarity.

There are more than 2.2 million Amnesty International members and subscribers in more than 150 countries and regions and we coordinate this support to act for justice on a wide range of issues.

Join us.
