Greetings Everyone!
Many of us are coming to terms with the surprising results of the U.S.
Presidential election. To emphasize once more... we are a nonpartisan
organization. Amnesty has issued a public statement, a letter to President-Elect Trump, and a guide
called, "Know Your Rights as a Human Rights Defender." Our group is
dedicated to shedding a light on human rights and we are tackling the
issues of racism, immigrant & refugee discrimination, women's
rights, death penalty & prison reforms, religious respect, LGBTi
rights, freedom of speech & press, and protecting our environment.
There will be many petitions to sign such as this one from the Southern Poverty Law Center and letters to be written. If you choose to join a rally such as the "Women's March on Washington" on January 21, stay safe. Please share your stories, photos, and your activism with us. Send your emails to Azam at azamnrad@gmail.com.
Welcome to our newest members, Melody and Ali. We are so happy that you have decided to join us as we take action for human rights. If you have human rights news items, events, actions, or videos that you would like to share with us, please send them to Azam, our Group Leader, at azamnrad@gmail.com.
