November 12 protest: 4:30 – 6:00 p.m., Federal Plaza, 50 W Adams, Chicago, IL
Rasmea Odeh was unjustly found guilty for allegedly lying on her immigration form because she didn’t mention her time in prison in Israel. Along with 500 or so others in 1969, Rasmea was arrested, tortured, and raped until she confessed to a crime she did not commit. After ten years of being in the US, when she filled out her immigration form and it asked if she had been arrested or convicted, Rasmea said no, because she thought it was referring to her time in the US. Rasmea Odeh was not allowed to talk about the injustice of her arrest in Israel and the jury based its decision on biased and unfair information. She was not only found guilty, but handcuffed and put in prison as she awaits her sentencing in March 2015.
We cannot sit silently as our friend, family member, and cornerstone of our community, Rasmea Odeh, once again is imprisoned unfairly. Let’s protest and stand in solidarity with Rasmea.
Write letters of support to Rasmea.
