AI Group 15 is the local voice of Amnesty International in Concord, MA USA, part of a worldwide campaign movement working to promote the human rights enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and other international standards. Learn about us. If you share our passion for protecting and defending human rights around the world, and here at home, Amnesty International's local group offers an effective way to help. We would be pleased to welcome you to any or all of its activities. Join us at our meeting (details) or check our calendar for all AI Group 15 upcoming events and directions. Monthly meeting Tuesday, September 9th, 7-9PM (2nd Tuesday of the month)At our meetings, we write letters on behalf of our own prisoners of conscience. We also write letters as a part of worldwide-coordinated "Urgent Action" cases, which address the plight of people around the world in immediate danger because of their ideas, and in some cases their non-violent work on behalf of those ideas. We work on death penalty cases and issues; Amnesty International has long opposed this form of punishment. When appropriate, we speak up on immigration cases in the United States in which political refugees have been denied their right of asylum, often after having been granted asylum by a federal judge.
