Sayama International Solidarity Campaign
In October 2006, IMADR’s Sayama International Solidarity Campaign Site was launched. The comprehensive website introduces the Sayama Case and aims to increase international awareness of Buraku discrimination, strengthen ties between organizations worldwide that are fighting racial discrimination in the administration of justice, and put international pressure on the Japanese government to change the way suspects are treated.
Join the struggle against racism in the administration of justice by visiting the Sayama International Solidarity Campaign website, and signing the website’s online petition (external link).
