Outlawed
Documents the extraordinary rendition, torture, and disappearances in America's "War on Terror."

Road to Guantanamo is a first-hand account of three British citizens who were detained at Guantanamo Bay for two years without charges.
A compelling docudrama, the movie chronicles the journey of the trio from Britain to Pakistan followed by their capture across the border in Afghanistan to their eventual detention at Camp X-Ray and Camp Delta.
In early 2002, CCR filed a habeas corpus petition in Rasul v. Bush on behalf of Shafiq Rasul and Asif Iqbal of the Tipton Trio featured in this docudrama.
On April 20, 2004 after granting certiorari, the Supreme Court heard arguments and ruled in favor of the detainees. Even though our clients, Rasul and Iqbal had been repatriated while the case was pending, this was the first major blow against the Bush administration and its practices of illegally and inhumanely detaining innocent foreign nationals like the Trio.
Iraq for Sale

CCR Attorneys have published a number of authoritative books on issues of constitutional rights, including ---
Born out of the civil rights movement, the Center for Constitutional Rights has consistently fought the battles no one else would touch. From combatting segregation in the 60’s and 70’s to challenging today’s U.S. government torture and Guantanamo detentions, from defending the “Chicago 7” to guarding a woman's right to choose, CCR has spent 40 years fighting in the courts to advance social justice for all people.
Today CCR is working to preserve our constitution against the Bush administration's assaults on civil liberties, human rights, and the separation of powers.
