Boston,Mass.-May 18, 2013: This weekend is one of global protests to shut down Guantanamo prison, where most of the prisoners have been on a long hunger strike to protest their indefinite detention without trial or due process-victims of the US war on terror that has gone horribly wrong. About 20 protesters held a vigil/speakout in Boston, Mass., outside Park Street subway station; this was today, May 18. The call was to make Obama keep his 2008 campaign promise to close Guantanamo. It was organized by The Committee For Peace And Human Rights-Boston, who hold a weekly anti-war vigil at the same time/location as today's protest; also Veterans For Peace and Women's International League For Peace And Freedom(WILPF)helped organize this protest as well.
