Alliance for Justice is pleased to invite you to an exciting upcoming event, Blueprint for Accountability,
featuring a stimulating panel of the world's foremost experts and artists on the issues of torture,
democracy, and accountability--engaging the public in constructing a blueprint for a more just and
democratic future.

Details about the event can be found below, but we hope you will join us in person at the Newseum on April
22nd or watch a live stream broadcast of the event on FORA.tv. A video of the event will be available on
demand following the presentation. Campus activists are encouraged to organize a watch party or similar
event utilizing resources provided by our partner, Culture Project.

Culture Project’s BLUEPRINT FOR ACCOUNTABILITY series presents:

Culture Project is alarmed by the ongoing American experiment with torture. Like many around the world,
they were tempted to believe that the election of Barack Obama would change everything. The culpability
of the previous administration remains to be determined, not to mention the prosecution of those who
created and maintain this torture regime. The “Blueprint for Accountability” series is meant as an urgent call
to action for policy makers, elected officials and citizens of this nation to craft a decisive moral response
against torture.

Now in its second installment, Culture Project brings its "Blueprint for Accountability" series to
Washington, D.C. Watch a clip from last year's launch at The Times Center.
