CALLING ALL HUMAN RIGHTS GROUPS AND ACTIVISTS, of whatever association, be it religion, sexual orientation, gender, or cultural - it's time to stand together for our joint human rights! The SA government is debating the removal of sexual orientation protection against discrimination clauses from the SA Constitution - if they succeed in this, who will be next?
This is an attack on ALL human rights - for if one group of people can be declared "less than human" by the removal of their human rights, it can be done to anyone else!
It starts with US, don't let it end with YOU!
Join and support any protest actions called for, regardless of your sexual orientation, religion, culture, race or gender!
Stand with us, fight this monstrous outrage with all you have!
Pass this on as far as you can, to everyone you know!
Kind regards,

SA GLAAD unequivocally oppose The Protection of Information Bill and the establishment of a statutory Media Appeals Tribunal. We oppose undemocratic practices such as censorship and the obstruction of human rights. Our criticisms of hate speech, misleading propaganda and false advertising should not be mistaken for support for efforts to stifle expression and a free media.
"We are, all of us, equal - or none."
