New York, NY - August 17, 2007. Iraq War Veteran and War Resister Agustin Aguayo spoke at NYC’s Brecht Forum, Wednesday, August 15. The event was organized by the Campus Antiwar Network (CAN) and endorsed by a number of organizations many of which tabled. Recently released from prison, Aguayo is taking his case to the Supreme Court - looking to have his two felony convictions (missing movement and desertion) overturned. The current speaking tour is designed to raise awareness and to raise funds for litigation.
For Aguayo it’s been a long road from enlistment to release from prision - and he remains Army “property” as the Army continues to refuse to recognize his status as a conscientous objector.
