[JNV] Maya Evans / Emily Johns - JNV Speaking Tour Next Week

[JNV]

Dear friends

On Monday, Emily Johns and Maya Evans will start a short joint speaking tour of the UK. 

Emily will be speaking about her recent peace delegation to Iran, showing slides and displaying images from her new anti-war exhibition about Iran (several images are on the JNV website).

Maya will be talking about her experience of being prosecuted under the Serious Organized Crime and Police Act (2005) for reading the names of the dead in front of Downing Street, and the wider erosion of civil liberties. (Maya has a book about her experiences coming out later this month: 'Naming the Dead: A Serious Crime'.)

The overall title of the tour is: 'The "War on Terror" - At Home And Abroad'.

The addresses or contact details are below.

JNV will be returning to full steam shortly, once we send Maya's new book 'Naming The Dead: A Serious Crime' to the printers!

Best wishes

Milan Rai
