CURE invites you to join in the thanking and congratulating of Alan Pogue for his book "Witness for Justice."

Alan Pogue has been CURE's volunteer photographer since its first statewide prison reform convention in Texas in 1975. As CURE has expanded nationally and now internationally, so has the geography of Alan's photography.

He will speak briefly and answer questions at 4, 5 and 6 pm. Books will be available for purchase and signing. Refreshments will be served.

"Pogue's stunning black & white images not only attract the eye to clarity and form, stir emotions to anger and compassion-but most are transformative encounters. We are taken to some of the world's most oppressed places-from the Middle East to Central America, to Cuba, Haiti and Mexico, to the punitive prison system of Texas-all in a searing panorama that challenges our inculcated prejudices and exotic fantasies"

- Robert Bonazzi, San Antonio Express-News
