York Amnesty Group Events

Amnesty International is campaigning against the adverse effect of policies on Human Rights that Donald Trump has pursued since becoming President of the USA:

• Tearing families apart at the border
• Keeping Guantánamo open
• Attacking women’s rights
• Quitting the human rights council

You can see AI’s objections and make your voice heard by joining the AI online petition:

Also join us in protest on Saturday at 12.30 in St Helen’s Square in York. Make a quick colourful poster or dress up for the occasion. York AI is meeting near the railings by the church in the square.
