253, The persisting importance of Guantánamo Bay with the Center for Constitutional Rights

On this edition of Free City Radio we hear from Shayana Kadidal, a Senior Managing Attorney at the Center for Constitutional Rights in New York. In this interview we hear about the plea deal that Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, detained by the U.S. since 2003, largely at Guantánamo Bay, which was shut down in the last period of the Democratic Biden administration. The interview places important context on understanding the realities of indefinite detention and the inherent injustice of Guantánamo Bay as persistent across both Democratic and Republic administrations in the US. Critically also we hear about the combined role that both legal advocacy and activism for the rights of those unjustly detained has done in securing the release of many formally detained at Guantánamo. Illustration is by Guantánamo detainee Abu Zubaydah: https://www.theguardian.com/law/2023/may/11/abu-zubaydah-drawings-guantanamo-bay-us-torture-policy This interview program is supported in 2025 by the Social Justice Centre at Concordia University.
