African Americans, Latinos, Native Americans, Asians, Africans, Arabs and Muslims continue to face racism and discrimination in America. The U.S. government must be made to protect the civil rights of all regardless of national origin, race or ethnicity, religion, language, culture, gender or sexual preference.
- Governments at all levels must end racial profiling and police brutality.
- We must stop the common practice throughout the country of police shootings of black men.
- We must protect gays and lesbians, bi-sexuals and transsexuals from harassment and abuse by anyone.
- We must stop the tendency toward anti-Arab and anti-Muslim statements by public officials and the media.
- Communities struggling in their own interests must come to see the need of collaboration with others who are fighting for their rights. We must work to bring together these various social movements of peoples who struggle against discrimination in particular areas, into a broad movement of civil rights for all.
