New York Yearly Meeting’s Minute on Torture
Chad Dell, who filmed various Friends reading portions of this minute at last summer’s Yearly Meeting, put the video on YouTube. Friend’s will recognize one of our own members in here.
“New York Yearly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends’ (Quakers) statement on torture, approved on July 25, 2008. In this statement, Quakers from New York and parts of New Jersey and Connecticut sign on to the National Religious Campaign Against Torture’s (nrcat.org) “Statement of Conscience” and its “Declaration of Principles” seeking an end to torture.”
