Guantanamo Bay is, as President George Bush famously declared it, an example of the "worst of the worst" in that it shows the dark side of American History. In Sarah Mirk's graphic anthology, "Guantanamo Voices", the malignant and horrific truth of the events that took place in Guantanamo come to life. With accounts from guards, defense attorneys, prosecutors and ex-detainees, Mirk places a face and a story to each of the 7600 page human rights violations committed on Guantanamo. It is a brutal read. I cried several times, especially at the story of Mansoor Adayfi, a prisoner who risked his life trying to protect the animals at the camp. To honor the memories of those who have suffered and continue to suffer endlessly under the American surveillance state, "Guantanamo Voices" is a necessary read.
