The Forgotten Prisoners
"The Forgotten Prisoners" is an article by Peter Benenson published in ''The Observer'' on 28 May 1961.〔Peter Benenson. "(The Forgotten Prisoners )" (abridged), ''The Observer'', 28 May 1961. Retrieved 28 May 2011.〕 Citing the Universal Declaration of Human Rights articles 18 and 19, it announced a campaign on "Appeal for Amnesty, 1961" and called for "common action". The article also launched the book ''Persecution 1961'' and its stories of doctor Agostinho Neto, philosopher Constantin Noica, lawyer Antonio Amat and Ashton Jones and Patrick Duncan.〔
Benenson reputedly wrote his article after having learnt that two Portuguese students from Coimbra were imprisoned in Portugal for raising a toast to freedom.〔Tracy McVeigh. "(Amnesty International marks 50 years of fighting for free speech )", ''The Observer'', 29 May 2011. Retrieved 29 May 2011.〕 The article was reprinted in newspapers across the world and provoked a flood of responses from the readers, marshalling groups in several countries to examine human rights abuses.〔Gemma Kappala-Ramsamy. "(The fight for human rights: Amnesty and the Observer )", ''The Guardian'', 29 May 2011. Retrieved 29 May 2011.〕
While, in 2015, the original story still remains to be verified, the appeal marks the beginning of Amnesty International, founded in London the same year following the publication〔"(The History of Amnesty International )", amnesty.org. Retrieved 28 May 2011.〕 after Benenson enlisted a Tory, a Liberal and a Labour MP.〔
