@AIANational Yes @AIANational! Upholding human rights is the way towards deconstructing racism. This is an important step. Looking forward to further progress!
Celebrating the decision by @AIANational to prohibit design of execution chambers and spaces for solitary confinement. A great step forward for the architectural profession!
Excellent news! The American Institute of Architects approved new ethical rules prohibiting its members from knowingly designing spaces intended for execution and torture, including indefinite or prolonged solitary confinement of prisoners. https://t.co/I7taLOiC4k @AIANational

Rhode Island can't expand their prisons if architects/builders won't do the work, so say no -- then sign @ADPSR_org's petition demanding that @AIANational revise the architect's code of ethics to ban the design of execution chambers & solitary cells.
