Just posted a thread asking people to email the Saudi Arabia embassy in D.C. to stop the flogging of the blogger.

It's been about a month and I really want to get this group going. I will be sending out invites to a discussion about how we might move forward on getting the group started.

There is also Responsible for Equality And Liberty (R.E.A.L.), based in Montgomery County, which does a number of local and international events. R.E.A.L. has worked together with Amnesty on China events. But we really must not forget LOCAL human rights issues as well, and R.E.A.L. is currently dealing with a local issue in Montgomery County.

I'm very interested and have some experience on social media. Message me if u want to chat
