Flashing for Justice!
What are YOU doing on August 30th?
Please join Amnesty St. Louis as we partner with the Justice for Reggie Campaign to raise awareness about the death penalty in Missouri.
Background: You may recall that Reggie’s case was highlighted by the AI International Secretariat in the December 2010 Global Write-a-Thon as a priority case for Human Rights Day/Week.
We need to get a rough head count for effective action, so please RSVP on Facebook and/or contact Meredith Reese, Anti-Death Penalty Coordinator for the St. Louis Region, to let us know you’ll be there!

Friends,
We have identified the times and sites in St. Louis for the Flashing for Justice in celebration of Reggie’s 40th birthday on Tuesday, August 30. Please take note of them and help us get people out.
The flash will be 3-5 minutes in length and be recorded for uploading to a designated server location. We will have signs that let passers-by know that it’s Reggie’s birthday, that he’s on Missouri’s Death Row and that he has a November 7 hearing.
Noon Sites:
Skinker Blvd and Forest Park Corner
Lindell Blvd and Grand Corner
