FREEDOM OF SPEECH
We support non-violent forms of expression and freedom of dissent, and believe no one should be prosecuted, imprisoned, detained, or persecuted for exercising their right to free expression in ethical and law-abiding manners. We simultaneously rebuke expressions and narratives of discrimination and bigotry, hate speech, and incitement to violence, and affirm that the rights to free expression and freedom of religion or belief cannot be invoked to justify such narratives.
UNIVERSAL HUMAN RIGHTS
We are committed to social, economic and environmental justice. We believe that the full self-realization of all people, in a safe and sustainable world, is a prerequisite for freedom, civility, and peace. We support efforts and policies for universal health care, public education, dismantling structural anti-Black racism, the protection of our environment, and the eradication of poverty.
GENDER justice
We support women’s agency and self-determination in every aspect of their lives. We believe in women’s full participation in society, economically, politically and socially, at every level. We are committed to reproductive justice and empowering women to make healthy decisions regarding their bodies, sexuality, gender identity, and reproduction.
