Human Rights Matter


Millennial 18-29 My Generation Fought for Civil Rights, now yours must fight for your A group of people with their hands up.Human Rights.

The Civil Rights Movement was started by High School and College Students like Martin L. King who was 26, and I think Congress John Conyers was younger, I was 20. We had our parents and grandparents support, and now you have ours: GMW.

You have the same power now, we had then, almost. We had the power but not the right to use it. So we took to the streets and jail for our Civil Rights. A red, white and blue elephant with stars on it's head.

Millennials, Use your Power: Your Vote-Your Dollars-Your God-Your  Love For Your Human Rights.

Any Elected Official, not for you, is against you, so use your power to get them out of office. U knock on the doors and we’ll make the Phone Calls. Team-Work-Makes-The Dream-Work.
