International Civil Rights Walk of Fame How can one stand in the footsteps of civil rights icons such as Congressman John Lewis, Justice Thurgood Marshall and Rosa Parks ? This impossible feat can be accomplished when the footprints of these and many other, noted civil rights leaders are embedded in the promenade at the Martin Luther King, Jr. National Historic Site The International Civil Rights Walk of Fame was created to pay homage to the brave warriors of justice who sacrificed and struggled to make equality a reality for all and is expected to enhance the historic value of the area, enrich cultural heritage, and augment tourist attractions. The “Walk of Fame” is the brain child of Xernona Clayton, President of the Trumpet Awards Foundation and a civil rights “shero” in her own right. Ms. Clayton says, “This will be a lasting memorial to those whose contributions were testaments to the fact that human progress is neither automatic nor inevitable.” International Civil Rights Walk of Fame inaugural inductees included: J uanita J. Abernathy; Ralph David Abernathy; Ivan Allen; Julian Bond; Jimmy Carter

IMMEDIATE RELEASE April 27, 2001 Mayors Express Sadness at Passing of International Civil Rights Crusader Leon Sullivan The Reverend Leon Sullivan, a pioneering civil rights crusader credited with helping end South Africa's system of apartheid, died April 25 at age 78, of leukemia according to his family. Conference Immediate Past President and Denver Mayor Wellington E. Webb remembered the Reverend Leon Sullivan as a man of peace, action and determination in his quest for equal rights for African Americans and in his battle against African apartheid. "Rev. Sullivan was an inspiration to so many of us who shared in the struggle for equal rights and we are both blessed to have known Rev. Sullivan," Mayor Webb and his wife, Mrs. Wilma J. Webb, said in a prepared statement. "His unwavering spirit to promote nonviolent social and economic change lasted throughout his life and made a tremendous impact both nationally and internationally. He will be greatly missed, but his amazing accomplishments throughout his life will endure and inspire for centuries to come." Mayor Webb attended the Fifth African-African American Summit convened by Rev. Sullivan in May 1999 in Ghana, West Africa, where the Mayor delivered a major policy address to the Summit delegates. Mayor Webb's address was the capstone in an historic U. S. Conference of Mayors' "Mayoral Mission to Africa" to Dakar, Senegal, and Accra, Ghana.

31. News Release - Argentina: On The Verge Of Political And Institutional Chaos, Rig international Human rights Federation Mission Concludes. The mission set out to gather information on the reported violations of civil and political rights as an official response to widespread protests at the government's failure to guarantee citizens basic social, economic and cultural rights. http://www.ichrdd.ca/english/commdoc/prelease/argentina.html

News Release Argentina: on the verge of political and institutional chaos MONTREAL, March 13, 2002 Organized by the International Federation of Human Rights, the mission set out to gather information on the reported violations of civil and political rights as an official response to widespread protests at the government's failure to guarantee citizens' basic social, economic and cultural rights. It found an alarming deterioration in the living standards of the majority of Argentines and clear evidence that the government is not meeting its obligations to its citizens, as set out in the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, ratified by Argentina in 1986. Official statistics show that currently 15 million of a population of 37 million live beneath the poverty line, with the numbers rising daily, and the middle classes affected as much as the poorer classes. Domestic production is virtually paralyzed, and the government, with its tax and debt revenues shrunk by 50%, is on the brink of bankruptcy. As the fissure deepens daily between the citizens of Argentina and the state institutions, the Mission was also alarmed to note the state's response of criminalization of legitimate social protest. Hundreds of cases, such as that of illegally imprisoned anti-hunger activist Emilio Ali, who has become a symbol of the government's attempts to delegitimize democratic dissent, only further discredit the judiciary, already dishonoured by its failure to bring to justice past military rulers for their crimes against humanity.

Governance On 20 April 2005 the civil liberties group Statewatch, together with the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and two other NGOs launched the Campaign Against Mass Surveillance (ICAMS), calling on all national governments and intergovernmental organisations to turn away from antiterrorism efforts that are oriented around mass surveillance. The campaign started with an in-depth report on 'The emergence of a global infrastructure for registration and surveillance'. "Driven largely by the United States, a growing web of anti-terrorism and security measures are being adopted by nations around the world. This new 'security' paradigm is being used to roll back freedom and increase police powers in order to exercise increasing control over individuals and populations." The report describes 10 signposts that clearly mark the general erosion of human rights. To some extent, all of the signposts have already been realised. To another extent, the report reads like a manual for an awesome uncle of Big Brother.

IP Justice is a member of the Global Internet Liberty Campaign (GILC) International Campaign for an Open Digital Environment The CODE campaign is an international coalition of civil liberties groups and consumer rights initiatives to protect consumer rights, innovation, and competition to reform the European Union Directive on the Enforcement of Intellectual Property. The EU IP Enforcement directive passed the EU Parliament and Council of Ministers in March 2004. The directive allows for unannounced searches ("midnight knocks"), ISP's being forced to turn personal information about customers over to Hollywood lawyers, and imprisonment for non-commercial infringements throughout the European Union. EU Member States are given 24 months in which to adopt the Directive into their own national laws. While there remained a number of troubling provisions in the final directive passed by the EU Parliament, several of the most dangerous, like measures that would have forbidden Europeans from bypassing technological restrictions such as RFID tags used to prevent infringement and criminal penalties, were removed from the directive's final version.
