Sir Patrick Stewart was best known for playing heroes on screen, but one of his bravest acts was telling the truth about his own childhood and speaking up for human rights.
For many years, he stood with Amnesty and spoke openly about the violence his mother suffered at home to support our campaign to stop violence against women. His honesty gave courage to survivors around the world.
Our thoughts are with his wife, family and friends. The best way to honour him is to carry on the fight he believed in. It should appal us all that the scourge of violence against women and girls continues, and Governments must do far more to end it.

We mourn the passing of Patrick Stewart, who inspired countless individuals at NASA (and beyond) to boldly go where no one has gone before.

The Trump administration has been ordered to turn over its list of 20,000 alleged noncitizen registrants in California to immigrant rights groups by the end of the day Friday, as the Justice Department escalates its legal efforts around the upcoming midterm elections. nbcnews.com/politics/justice…

Machines are tools, not persons. Today, some propose granting these systems rights, or even legal personhood. Such an approach risks obscuring human responsibility and leaving those who suffer harm to confront a faceless entity.

It turns out that ICE is everywhere. And it so happens that the center for most of their surveillance activities nationally is in my home state of Vermont.
In solidarity with activists all over the country, I've created Melt ICE.
It’s a tribute to the Vermont 5, who protested non-violently at the national ICE surveillance center.
We MUST ABOLISH ICE and stop the masked ICE thugs.

Pilots at DCA weren’t too happy about the flyover over D.C. this evening.
“How many more fly-bys is he doing?” one pilot asked, according to @theATCapp recordings. “Hopefully that’s the last,” an air traffic controller replied.
