Message of thanks from freed Bahrain teacher, Jalila al Salman

Jalila al Salman, former Vice-President of the Bahraini Teaching Union, was locked up in April 2011 for calling for a teachers’ strike, but was released after pressure from Pocket Protestors. She recorded this message to thank everyone who took action for her.

While you’re here…

Like you, we are horrified by the violence and the civilian death toll in Gaza, Israel and the rest of the Occupied Palestinian Territories. We’re calling for an immediate ceasefire by all parties in the occupied Gaza Strip and Israel to prevent further loss of civilian lives. Amnesty International is investigating mass summary killings, indiscriminate and disproportionate attacks, hostage-taking, and siege tactics.

As ever, our mission to protect human rights remains. Please donate today to help expose war crimes and protect human rights. Thank you.
