Today is an Amnesty International rallying day for human rights. I found out about it through a Facebook promotion: Bloggers Unite for Human Rights. The topic that I, as a blogger, would like to highlight is the continued censorship in China, particularly internet censorship. The filtering, blocking, and state monitoring of ideas is offensive to me as a librarian, and if you feel the same way then you may want to read about the imprisonment of Shi Tao, a Chinese journalist.
Amnesty International provides an online action center where you can express your opinion on human rights issues to government officials and other people in positions of power.
