To world leaders, CEOs and investors around the world:

We urge you to stand with the Uyghur people in Xinjiang. It is not acceptable to turn a blind eye and keep "business as usual" while a million people are being brutally detained and brainwashed in China. We call on you to leverage your political and economic power, including targeted sanctions and divestment, to compel the Chinese government to respect the human rights and freedoms guaranteed to Uyghurs under international law. This is a matter of conscience for all of us.

Free the Uyghurs!
China has imprisoned 1 million ethnic minority Uyghurs, using the same tactics they used in Tibet: forced detention and re-education, beatings, and even torture!

But it doesn't need to be this way.

Not everybody in the Chinese government agrees with the Uyghur policy -- leaked classified documents about the atrocities have shaken the government, triggering China to undertake a mass PR campaign in key countries to ensure it has international support.

High-ranking Chinese politicians, business people and the elite are very sensitive to what the rest of the world says about them. And if we launch an urgent global appeal to free the Uyghurs, there's a chance they could drop this dreadful policy.

Add your name now -- let's get 1 signature for every one of the Uyghur men, women and children detained, and do all we can to free them.
