Stop de criminaliseringswet

Laan van Reagan en Gorbatjov, Den Haag, zondag 7 september om 13:00 CEST

Kom naar de landelijke demonstratie voor een rechtvaardige en humane samenleving.

Waarom?

Omdat criminalisering van migranten en vluchtelingen een slecht voorstel is.

Het drijft mensen uit elkaar. Omdat het mensen bang maakt om hun gezicht te laten zien, bang om hulp te zoeken. Omdat het degenen bevoordeelt die er misbruik van maken: uitbuiters, misbruikers, dieven en geweldplegers.

En vooral:

omdat het de menselijke waardigheid ondermijnt. Daarom houden we deze demonstratie: om onze stem te laten horen tegen dit voorstel, waar de Senaat in september over zal stemmen.

WAT KUN JE DOEN?

Kom met veel mensen en help met organiseren!

HOE KOM JE ER?

De Laan van Reagan en Gorbatsjov ligt tegenover station Den Haag Centraal.

Criminalizing Masks at Protests is Wrong

There has been a crescendo of states attempting to criminalize the wearing of face coverings while attending protests. Now the President has demanded, in the context of ongoing protests in Los Angeles: “ARREST THE PEOPLE IN FACE MASKS, NOW!” But the truth is: whether you are afraid of catching an...

@sludge That is just as intentional as #criminalizing #homelessness and outlawing #trans and #nonbinary peoples' existance!

@CStamp

The reasons for homelessness are probably uncountable and I guess that those people exist in every country.
But #criminalizing homelessness by itself and making life for those people intentionally hard and uncomfortable is something where the USA gathered "reputation" and could do much better. Some countries support #homeless people with shelters when it's too cold to sleep outside or with many other things. With #humanity in mind people can be treated much different than in the USA.
