Speak out against Trump’s hate-mongering.

| EDIT
Dear friends,
He’s called Mexicans rapists and women “bimbos” and “fat pigs”. He’s promised to shut down mosques, keep a database of Muslims, and round up the children of “illegal” immigrants. Now a new report says Donald Trump’s hateful speech could make him a threat to our global security. Enough is enough — with one click, join the sign-on letter below that’s sweeping the planet and speak out against Trump’s hate-mongering. Once we hit 2 million signers it will be printed in media outlets around the world:
ADD MY NAME
Dear Mr. Trump,
This is not what greatness looks like.
The world rejects your fear, hate-mongering, and bigotry. We reject your support for torture, your calls for murdering civilians, and your general encouragement of violence. We reject your denigration of women, Muslims, Mexicans, and millions of others who don’t look like you, talk like you, or pray to the same god as you.
Facing your fear we choose compassion. Hearing your despair we choose hope. Seeing your ignorance we choose understanding.
As citizens of the world, we stand united against your brand of division.
Sincerely,
Recent signers -- Add my name

Trump isn’t the only politician on the global stage exploiting political alienation and fear to sow hate — but he’s the only one who is doing it with $2 billion worth of media attention.
We can use Trump’s media magnetism to our advantage and trigger a massive story about the world rejecting this hate-mongering — but for it to really work, it needs to be a multi-million strong global call. Sign below with one click and share with friends — if enough of us join, we’ll urge politicians and celebrities to add their voices to ours.
Let’s create a united global chorus against Trump’s calls for division.
With hope and determination,
Stephen, Nell, David, Dalia, Nataliya, Mia, Andrew, and the rest of the Avaaz team
P.S. This email is a bit different than usual, and that’s because we’ve never had a moment quite like this before. Massive numbers really do matter on this one — if we each share this with 10 friends we can make clear that the world rejects the kind of divisive, fearful, hateful politics that Trump represents.
