International PEN Writers in Prison Day
November 15th, 2007Today, the 15th of November, is the day the PEN organization dedicates to writers in prison all over the world:
Once a year, on 15 November, PEN stages its Day of the Imprisoned Writer where its membership of writers use their combined force to work towards change.
PEN has a profile of Kareem. He is also considered an Honarary Member of English PEN. On the 7th of November, PEN also published a press release to promote the worldwide rallies as well as to condemn his unjust sentence.
On this day we would like the world to remember the injustice that Kareem is being put through, merely for writing his personal opinions on his blog.
