Stand in Solidarity with Human Rights Activists

A picture paints a thousand words. To know this is true only requires a single phrase: Abu Ghraib. The images released to the public shocked the world, and provided irrefutable evidence of the unconscionable interrogation tactics employed by U.S military personnel.

Everyday, grassroots activists around the world are documenting pressing human rights abuses not dissimilar to the abuse in Abu Ghraib.

Even in the face of insurmountable oppression and censorship, human rights defenders press on to help create the change they want to see.

WITNESS is building a community of support for these activists on the Hub. As they work on the front lines of today's most pressing human rights abuses, the Hub is where their voices can be heard and issues can be linked to unearth global trends in the struggle for human rights.

Pledge to become a part of the growing movement of citizen journalists, activists, lobbyists and video advocacy pioneers whose voices are often locked out of mainstream media.

You can check out the Hub at http://hub.witness.org. The Pledge I pledge to stand beside the brave activists who capture on film the human rights abuses in their local communities. I will share in their act of witnessing and take action to right the wrongs that they document. By doing so, I will help build a global community focused on alleviating human rights violations and strengthening the dignity of all people.
