#WeAreNotGhouls

We Are Not Ghouls at Alamo Lamar 6

Mar 12, 2022

12:15pm – 1:49pm CT

US Air Force JAG Attorney Yvonne Bradley volunteered to defend Binyam Mohamed who was facing a death penalty case at Guantanamo Bay in 2005. Believing the detainees at Guantanamo were ‘the worst of the worst’ in the war on terror, Yvonne's world was turned upside down as she arrived in Cuba and began to untangle an unimaginable case. Spending the next 4 years battling to uncover the truth, Yvonne's is a captivating story of taking responsibility in the face of corruption at the highest levels of power, and the dangers of choosing to stand up for what you believe in.  What's the difference between a terrorist sympathizer and a hero?  Would you risk it all to do the right thing?
