The city council finally voted to remove those statues and began the work of addressing the laws that stripped us of our dignity. I am overwhelmed by the support of the 318 people who walked this path with me because you proved that our humanity is not up for debate. …

We’ve heard people say “we’re going to walk until these statues are down”. I hope you agree that removal of the confederate statues should be only one of the things we demand before the protesting stops. There are many organizations making demands, but these are the demands of the people. We demand to be treated with HUMANITY! We demand to be treated with love, compassion, and human kindness.
With that in mind, the demands set forth in this Declaration of Humanity, calls for people of color who are suffering from unfair and misguided laws, to be dignified. We are tired of being disrespected and mistreated.
All people should be with us to make this stand, not just people of color. Everyone should want just and fair treatment for all people.

Seeing these names stack up keeps me going when the grief feels overwhelming. We are almost at one hundred signatures so please send this link to a few people who need to see our demand for simple human dignity.

I hear you, I support you, I love and respect you. It is time for change NOW. I am so sorry it has taken this country so long to come around. Thank you for generations of daring acts of courage and your persistence to realize your dream of equality.
About time. These statues are just a symbol of all the other garbage people have had to deal with for way too long. Keep pushing.
Finally someone said it. Respect for everyone should be the bare minimum but here we are. Im with you all the way.
This document is very well thought out and employs very reasonable requests that should be adopted immediately. Power to the people!
I fully support this movement and I think it’s wonderful to see such a well formed piece of literature like this regarding injustice and ideas for reformations.

It's abhorrent that such blatant discrimination and bias has been inflicted on people of color across the United States for so long. We need to start showing those in power that we will not accept this treatment, and will not stop until we see a change.
