The point here, is for all of us to stand up for all people and sign against those who lack the character to act with respect, show respect, and create an environment of respect for one's self, our co-workers, those we meet in everyday life, and of course the global community. The more people stand together, speak as one, protect and defend one another the better our community, and perhaps, the world, can be.
The change is happening now. It is because we call out the disrespectful that we become united in respect. It begins with common decency, shown with our behavior, our words, our way of being in a world of diverse humanity. Please show that you too believe in respect and decency by signing you name to this petition of Human Rights, as the San Francisco Policy Department must pledge to our citizens.
By signing, you accept Care2's Terms of Service.
You can unsub at any time here.
