Stand against child protective servicesSomeone had me falsely arrested for domestic violence and went on to use the court system and child protective services to deprive me of my children with the help of child protective services falsifying documents to make unfounded and untrue allegations stand in court.29 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Juan Mack

Senate and house: call out hate crimes against Muslim AmericansMuslim Americans have come under discrimination since President Trump was inaugurated in January. According to a data analysis, the number of anti-Muslim hate crimes in the United States rose 91 percent in the first half of the year compared with the same period in 2016, according to a leading Muslim advocacy and civil rights group. People should tell their members of Congress to call out anti-Muslim hate by visiting a mosque and assuring Muslim-Americans that they are welcome here. This why I made a petition to the United States Senate and U.S. House of Representatives to make sure these hate crimes stop.1,000 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Abraham Alrai

Endangered Species: Melenated men facing extinctionThis petition is about providing the same rights, protective laws (including penalties for violators), and privildges to the Melenated (so called Black) men as are afforded to animals, particularly those classified as endangered species. If $.19 per day can help, shelter, feed and protect an abused, abandoned or neglected animal, YOUR VOICE AND SIGNATURE can do more of the same for this endangered species. Don't let your silence contribute to their extinction!15 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Kimberly McCants

Kimberly McCants: Protect the KingThere are hundred of organizations and laws that protect the rights, life and welfare of animals and endangered species, but none that protect the Melenated people, men in particular. If the abuse, neglect and killing of an animal deserves IMMEDIATE legal consequences of fines and imprisonment, how much more dothe lives of the Melenated Man and woman.16 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Kimberly McCants

Remove the Department of State's Discriminatory Passport PoliciesCurrently, the U.S. Department of State will only allow people who are female or male to travel out of the United States by restricting documents such as passports to two options: male and female. This is a horrifying and completely violates the Fourteenth Amendment, as it prevents nonbinary and intersex people from simply vacationing. Worse, it prevents nonbinary people from even seeking asylum in the few countries which will take them. This is completely absurd and unacceptable. If the U.S. does not want nonbinary people, it should at least allow them to leave, not imprison them and slowly watch them suffer. That is also a violation of the eighth amendment.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Brett

Extend Voting Age to Sixteen in MemphisIn Memphis, 16- and 17-year-olds drive, participate in the labor force, and be tried as adults. Yet, we cannot vote to influence any of the systems that personally affect us: school, jobs, and laws. Extending voting rights will allow us to influence these systems and enter the political sphere. Increasing youth involvement and understanding in the political process will help establish a more informed community, showing that youth are present and here to get involved. People are ready to extend these rights to youth. Since 2000, there have been numerous legislative bills proposed in over twenty US states to extend the voting age. So far, two Maryland cities, Takoma Park and Hyattsville, have extended these rights to 16- and 17-year-olds in local elections. Extending voting rights to 16- and 17-year olds in Memphis is a huge step towards a more inclusive city. Please sign this petition to voice your support for youth representation in the political process in Memphis.235 of 300 SignaturesCreated by The Memphis Youth Union

2 year old A.J. needs a kidney transplantA 2-year-old boy named A.J. is fighting for his life. And Emory University Hospital is refusing to perform a life-saving kidney transplant operation because of his father, Anthony Dickerson has a criminal record. Anthony is a 100% match to donate a kidney to his son--but after a probation violation, hospital administrators are denying him the chance. A.J. was supposed to have the surgery this month, but the hospital canceled, saying "we need you to be on good behavior for three to four months before you can give your son the kidney. And January 2018 we will think about re-evaluating you." This is a cruel and heartless decision made by Emory University Hospital. A young boy's life is at risk. There is no time for the hospital to push its own agenda and act as its own judge and jury. The systemic racism that exists in the criminal justice system pours into our communities' abilities to live their lives and make free choices. Everyday returning citizens are making their way out of the vicious confines of the prison industrial complex only to struggle to gain fair access to jobs, housing, education, and healthcare. This also has a lasting impact on families and our entire communities. To put an extreme barrier like denying one's son's right to live is not only devastating but inhumane. We all have a duty to help push Emory University Hospital to save this boy's life and do the right thing now. Sign the petition.23,304 of 25,000 SignaturesCreated by Rashad Robinson
