VIDEO: Vic Walczak speaks to reporters after voter ID Day Two


Vic's comments to reporters after the second day (July 26, 2012) of our voter ID challenge. Citing an expert study commissioned by ACLU-PA, Vic addresses the disproportionate burden these ID requirements impose on various groups, and the potentially devastating impact of poor public awareness of the new law.

VIDEO: Thank you!!

From all of us at the ACLU-PA, a very sincere thank you for your support, no matter what form it takes. None of the work we do would be possible without tens of thousands of Pennsylvanians, and millions of people nationwide, who contribute their time, their funds, or their good word to the work of the ACLU.


While we're at it, one final plug: there's still plenty of time to make a tax-deductible year-end contribution to the ACLU and ACLU-PA!

Video: Kitzmiller v Dover is on the web!

NOVA produced a pretty great episode a couple of years ago about our 2005 case against teaching intelligent design in science classes, Kitzmiller v Dover Area School District. It's almost two hours long and examines the case from several angles, and it's pretty entertaining - and it's actually a pretty good two-hour lesson on the basic tenets of both intelligent design and evolution theory, including the origins of the flagellum, the relevance of using a mousetrap as a tie clip, and the missing link between creation and intelligent design, "cdesign proponentsists."


The video is available on the web for free. The embedded version below comes from Google Video, which loads considerably faster than the one at PBS.org. While I'm at it, I'll also plug Devil in Dover, a book about the trial written by ACLU of Pennsylvania board member Lauri Lebo, who also appears in the NOVA episode.
