Light a candle

Shot with Olympus E510
It is better to light a candle than to curse the darkness.


Amnesty International was founded in London in 1961, with its genesis occurring on the London Underground; something of which we Londoners should be truly proud.

Amnesty have just launched a campaign "Human Rights For China" highlighting the human rights abuses that continue in China.They have produced a hard-hitting cartoon, you can see here. Personally, I'm all in favour of engagement, but without this sort of action to draw attention to the wrongdoing, all it becomes is appeasement.

I'm away for a few days, but posting will continue.
