Amnesty Intl Seeks New Deputy Head Via NY Transfer News Collective * All the News that Doesn't Fit source - FBOYLE@LAW.UIUC.EDU Fri May 28 09:39:57 1999 Good riddance to Derek Evans. Two years ago while our People were being attacked by the British Army and the RUC at Drumcree, he had the audacity to appear publicly on these lists and tell us that he and Amnesty International were not going to lift one finger to help Irish Catholics in Northern Ireland then under military assault. I strongly recommend that Amnesty International get someone from the Third World who has some basic sense of decency, compassion and respect for Oppressed Peoples to serve as its Deputy Director.
