The President of Gambia is seeking the prosecution and execution of the gay community in his country, seeking them out through 'rape tests'. https://secure.avaaz.org/en/stop_gambia_antigay_crackdown_12/?bWLvthb&v=49141 By signing this, you urge the E.U to suspend their financial aid to Gambia and prevent the President from realising his dream of the 'smiling coast' country until all of his anti-gay laws are abolished.

I once read that as children of the 21st century, we are unlucky; we were too late for the exploration of our planet and too early for the exploration of our stars. Yet as I watched the Google I/O Keynote this year, I believe that we are the lucky ones. We were born into the perfect era of innovation and we get to experience the rise of a knowledge surge. We might have our flaws -- the war, poverty, chaos, ignorance -- yet didn't every era? I say we embrace our generation, our century, our millennia.
