NOT DEAD YET
NATIONAL ACTION ALERT
RALLY AND DIRECT ACTION
AGAINST PETER SINGER
Tuesday, September 21, 1999
Begins 9:30 a.m. (Singer's first class!!)
Princeton, NJ
Peter Singer, recently appointed to a tenured chair at the Center for
Human Values, begins his first semester of teaching at Princeton
University next month. Princeton University is a prominent leader is
shaping national policy on bio-ethics.
Singer is arguing for major policy changes: people with significant
cognitive disabilities and infants with any known disability should be
killed when there is a benefit to the non-disabled people around them to
having them removed.
The first targets of Singer's proposed policy changes are people with
cognitive disabilities, perhaps the most devalued members of our
community. It is time for all of us to come together in strength to
oppose any threat to any one of our brothers and sisters.
It's not about academic freedom, it's about hate speech.
If you can be there, we need you.
