Lead our Community to Action!

Dear sisters,

As you may have read in this month's Power of the Pulse, we are kicking off a series of Action Blogging Campaigns in efforts to rally the PulseWire community around topics that matter to you and with real actions to apply.

In response to Uganda's anti-gay bill which is slated to come before parliament in late February or early March, the theme for the first campaign is LGBT Rights. This initiative was sparked by PulseWire member Gertrude Pswarayi of Zimbabwe, who asked if there was a way to survey the PulseWire community on the topic of sexual minorities. We wanted to take it a step further - and not only ask the community for feedback, but to also provide the space to rally our voices for change and take it straight to the Ugandan parliament.

I invite you - as activists for LGBT Rights - to sound off first and lead our community in this urgent discussion.

Visit the Action Blogging Campaign program page to learn more. Remember to tag your journal with "Action LGBT" to add your voice to the cause.

In solidarity,
Jade
