The Torture on Trial Protest at Ft. Huachuca in mid-November was held in tandem with the Close the School of the Americas Vigil. Ft. Huachuca, located 70 miles southeast of Tucson, Arizona, houses the U.S. Army Intelligence Center and School (USAICS). Ft. Huachuca has a long history of complicity in U.S. crimes of torture.

(Deanna’s aside: I am proud to say I have been arrested at the Nevada test side alongside Father Louie and Sister Megan, two individuals who have highly inspired me in my peace and justice work.)
