Cynthia Attends Oral Arguments in Appeal of Lynne Stewart's Conviction

Tue, 01/29/2008 - 17:59
Start: 01/29/2008 - 14:00 End: 01/29/2008 - 15:00

USDC
500 Pearl Street
9th Floor North Ceremonial Courtroom
New York, NY
Oral arguments for the appeal.

Human rights attorney Lynne Stewart was falsely accused of helping terrorists. On Tuesday, April 9, 2002, she was arrested and agents searched her Manhattan law office. She was convicted and faces 30 years in prison. She is the only person ever convicted under the U.S. PATRIOT Act.

This is an obvious attempt by the U.S. government to silence dissent, curtail a vigorous defense for those accused of terrorism, and instill fear in those who would fight against the U.S. government's racism, seek to help Arabs and Muslims being prosecuted for free speech and defend the rights of all oppressed people.

The 2d Circuit has adjourned oral argument until January 29, 2008, at 2 p.m. The reason is that the law clerks need to be cleared to review the materials the Court last week ordered produced with respect to the government's ex parte submissions regarding FISA and NSA.

Cynthia McKinney Attends American Blackout Showing in Ft. Lauderdale

Thu, 01/17/2008 - 01:30
Start: 01/19/2008 - 18:00 End: 01/19/2008 - 21:00

Unfettered by corporate dollars, she can unapologetically, and without triangulation, be who she IS, and thereby serve past and future constituents in a way so reminiscent of real democracy, that many Americans today would not recognize it.

When she speaks of the future, she means OURS. When she speaks of "change," it involves us ALL.

She asks serious questions and does not question who she is nor what must be done to make America healthier, more secure and more responsible to its own citizens, to its neighbors, to its soul and to its destiny.

She is one of five people seeking the Green Party nomination for
President because there she can ask all those questions and more, and not be silenced nor cut from the debate.

Perhaps there is something to be learned here.

Come meet her this weekend as she appears at the screening of the film American Blackout at the Cinema Paradiso in Ft. Lauderdale.

Congresswoman McKinney will be in the theater as well as in Ian Inaba's intelligent documentary which exposes years of fraudulent electoral practices that deny full citizenship to millions of Americans of color, and thus deny democracy to us all.
