5 years of Guantanamo - Tackle the Shackles Action at Hiatts
Mike D | 04.01.2007 14:18 | Repression | Birmingham | World
The activists will arrive at Hiatts on a 7.5 tonne truck with folk band “Seize the Day” to ‘celebrate’ the 5th anniversary of the opening of Guantánamo Bay’s camp on Thursday 11th January 2007.
Hiatts manufacture the shackles used by the US military in the notorious Guantánamo Bay over the last 5 years. Hiatts’ has never missed a business opportunity in over 200 years from supplying “nigger collars” to the slave trade to shackles used during torture to various unsavoury regimes.
Please join us in the protest. We will update the information as plans for the protest are finalised including transport from various cities of England to the protest.
Everyone is welcome to come along, please meet on Thursday 11th of January 2007 at 1.30pm on the corner of Rocky Lane and Baltimore Road in Perry Barr:-
