Greetings Everyone!
As I am sitting here in Boston attending a professional conference, I’m
thinking of the many Amnesty International activists attending the Amnesty
International General Meeting (AGM) in Brooklyn this same weekend. How exciting
it must be to join together and share the passion of working together for human
rights! This year, certain sessions at the conference will be live-streamed so
that we, who are unable to attend, may listen in. Click
here for more information. If you are one of the lucky ones able to attend,
report back to us and spread the news.
Much has been said about the Power of One. YOU can make a difference.
Yes, YOU. We have almost 50 members in our local AI Madison Group. We have
almost 500 likes on our Facebook page. We have almost 50 followers on Twitter.
If YOU, pass on our Weekly Update, Facebook posts, Tweets, or Actions
(petitions, calls, letters, etc) to ONE more person that increases our message
and actions by one (and who knows how many more people). If each of our 600
members, followers, and likes passes on our message and actions to their
friends, the math is mind-blowing. ONE person can make a difference and that
ONE person is YOU!
