Very excited to see @AIANational stepping up for human rights! Architects should never kill or torture people... and now members won't. Thank you AIA!
Excellent news! The American Institute of Architects approved new ethical rules prohibiting its members from knowingly designing spaces intended for execution and torture, including indefinite or prolonged solitary confinement of prisoners. https://t.co/I7taLOiC4k

Rhode Island can't expand their prisons if architects/builders won't do the work, so say no -- then sign @ADPSR_org's petition demanding that @AIANational revise the architect's code of ethics to ban the design of execution chambers & solitary cells. https://t.co/GerHatuY6o

If you're a journalist and want to get a little activism in at work, why not call the AIA and ask for a reply to @kimmelman's column on why members are still allowed to design torture and execution chambers? try BoardofDirectors@aia.org, media@aia.org or a direct contact.

When you compare U.S. police killings to other wealthy countries, it is clear that frequent police killings are not just an inevitable part of law enforcement.

Police violence is a systemic problem in the U.S., not simply incidental, and it happens on a scale far greater than other wealthy nations.
