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.23,302 of 25,000 SignaturesCreated by Rashad Robinson

Sit Yuli GurrielRegardless of the World Series importance, and even more so since this is a series viewed by millions of people across the globe, these types of racist words and actions should not be tolerated by this Astros organization. The team should take a stand against this form of ignorance by sending a clear message that this will not be tolerated.117 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Stephen Lee

Release Jordi Cruixart and Jordi Sanchez, protesters, from Madrid, Spain prisonJordi Cruixart and Jordi Sanchez were protesting after voting for independence on Oct. 1, 2017. The Madrid police took Jordi Cruixart and Jordi Sanchez as prisoners for no other reason than a peaceful demonstration. These two men deserve to be free from unimaginably harsh prison conditions, to return to their families and to their jobs. Peacefully protesting for independence was given an unfair charge by the police who targeted Jordi Cruixart and Jordi Sanchez.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by David DesJardine

One million signatures for animal rights at the United NationsThe United Nations regularly holds a Universal Periodic Review (UPR) in which it reviews the human rights record of nations across the world. While the UPR has expanded to include violence based on nationality, gender identity, and sexual orientation, animals continue to be completely ignored. This neglect occurs despite the trillions of individual animals - including entire species - who are being exterminated across the globe. The Compassionate City Campaign lays out a bold vision for cities within the UN to enshrine the right of all sentient beings to live free from violence. We are calling on the UN Human Rights Council to include animal rights -- and the goal of gradually creating a truly compassionate vegan city -- in its covenant on civil and political rights at its next UPR. By setting out this vision today, the United Nations will lay the groundwork for achieving an end to institutionalized animal exploitation worldwide in one generation.20,132 of 25,000 SignaturesCreated by Compassionate City

WE THE PEOPLE DAY, Jan. 1st, 2018Our world has become numb to the ongoing tragedies and it is time for a good, old fashioned, peaceful, UPRISING! My hope is that people will agree and go outside and start a conversation with their neighbors and this will grow into a global conversation. The space station will film the lights turning on as it orbits the globe and this will be the sign of our collective voice for the above ideals, one our leaders simply cannot ignore. Please look at my Facebook page for the logo and other news regarding WE THE PEOPLE DAY. I very much appreciate the help and support from Moveon.org!

Support Cowboys Players if J. Jones Sidelines Them for KneelingWe believe it is wrong to sideline players for protesting the systemic injustice against blacks in this country. The best thing the NFL owners could do to return their player to standing during the national anthem is to visibly show the players (and public) that the owners are using their influence to counter Trump's cowardly and racist rhetoric. The damage that Trump's rhetoric (and the owners' complicit inaction) to the players' lives outweighs the benefits of having a good job in the NFL. The players are doing their best to do their job while living in a country with issues larger than their job. The owners should do their job of creating an environment (which includes issues outside their stadiums) that helps their players win games. If the owners refuse to do this, necessitating that some players feel compelled to kneel and be docked time and pay, then we the people of the USA will financially support those players while publically highlighting the injustice those owners perpetuate and in effect show that they have inadequate understandings of how to manage a winning team. We are taught that, and the President provides and example of, hate begets hate. The NFL owners and commissioner seem to have not learned this. Their solution to their perceived problem of their players acts of silent protest against oppression is to apply oppression. Clueless owners are poor managers and cannot ultimately create and support winning teams. Please, you know the players' cause is just and is greater that an issue of simple respect. Support their cause in ways that visibly show you understand that it is difficult for the players to highlight a just cause at the cost of igniting a smaller battle. The players are willing to lose a battle if they believe they must fight to win a war. What is the war the owners are fighting?26 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Peter M

The silencing of Jemele HillWe are in a period of sustained egregious behavior from our country's top leader who is carrying out policies that are an assault on our humanity's future. Never is the time to support silencing varying viewpoints in our country, and particularly in the case of an intelligent African American female reporter.208 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Gregg Salisbury
