Bloggers Unite for Human Rights

Today, bloggers everywhere are uniting, and hopefully posting messages about basic human rights.

Countries with transparent and open governments also are the ones with the least basic human right issues.  The FOIA and other acts like it allow focus to be put on "what the government is doing."  Countries, such as Burma, where there is no government transparency are able to easily take away human rights because there is no way for its citizens to know just what the government is up to.  Today, I urge all countries to uphold basic human rights and enact freedom of information act laws.
