Amnesty International

Amnesty International is an independent, worldwide movement working impartially for the release of prisoners of conscience: those people detained because of their beliefs, race, sex, ethnic origin, language or religion-who have neither used nor advocated the use of violence. We also campaign for fair and prompt trials for all political prisoners and an end to torture and execution in all cases.

Amnesty International at Nazareth aims to educate the students, faculty, and staff of the college on these issues. It strives to promote not simply mere tolerance, but acceptance of our mutual diversities as human beings. Previous events have included movie nights, speakers, letter-writing campaigns, and volunteering.
