Jan 16, 2026 - Freedom for Milagro Sala

When: January 16th, 6:30pm
Where: Friends House, 60 Lowther

January 16th will mark ten years since the arbitrary detention of Milagro Sala, who was arrested and imprisoned for being a woman, poor, racialized, Indigenous, and a social justice activist.

Her unjust imprisonment exemplifies one of the most emblematic cases of political persecution and judicial violence in contemporary Argentina and reflects the repressive and disciplinary model imposed by the Government of the Province of Jujuy since December 2015 with the complicity of the then-National Government, constituting an affront to democracy and the rule of law.
