I got this from Amnesty International:

Dear Tracy,

Thank you for showing your support for human rights in Turkey.

Right now the country remains in crisis. We're amassing a growing body of evidence of police brutality and calling on authorities to respect the rights of peaceful protestors.

Amnesty staff is on the ground in Turkey, very near the violence, sending credible, verified accounts of abuses to journalists and decision-makers around the world.

Watch this video to find out more about how Amnesty is fighting for dignity and human rights in the unfolding crisis in Turkey.

In solidarity,

Howard Eissenstat
Turkey Specialist
