Marking the 60th anniversary of the UN Declaration of Human Rights, and six years since the the attacks of 11 September 2001, Amnesty International is bringing a life size replica of a maximum security cell at Guantánamo Bay to several cities across the US.

On 30 May, the cell arrived in Philadelphia where it stayed for two days, until the 1 June. Ellen Dorsey, chair of AI USA executive board kicked off the event, and on Saturday 31 May, local mucisians the Late Nite Drifters and Tom Mullian played. Visitors were encouraged to experience the inside of the life size replica. Due to an unfortunate technical problem, they could not leave video messages from inside the cell, as it was planned.

To view pictures of the cell tour around the US, please visit Counter Terror With Justice’s Flickr account.
Watch videos recorded inside the replica cell in other cities during the tour.
