Stand Up for People Who Stand Up

Lynne Stewart could have gotten rich feeding at the corporate trough like so many other lawyers.
But she didn't.
Instead, she stood up for the rights of the poor, the oppressed and the powerless.
Now, she's the target of government retaliation for it.
Maybe you'd like give her your support.

"Radical human rights attorney Lynne Stewart has been falsely accused of helping terrorists. On Tuesday, April 9, 2002, she was arrested and agents searched her Manhattan office for documents. She was arraigned before Manhattan federal Judge John Koeltl. This is an obvious attempt by the U.S. government to silence dissent, curtail vigorous defense lawyers, and install 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."
