international day of the disappeared...

every day, people are abducted or secretly detained by their own governments in an attempt to silence dissenting views...

this past saturday, august 30th, we honored the "disappeared" because even though we don't know where they currently are, we remember the people...and why they were taken...

there are 41,257 "disappeared" people whose reported cases remain unresolved...that's at least 41,257 reasons to ensure that justice is served and human rights are always protected...

watch video highlighting families affected by enforced disappearances

peace out <3
