CNN Covers Bloggers Unite for Human Rights

CNN ran a story during their American Morning segment on Thursday about Bloggers Unite for Human Rights, a global BlogCatalog event supported by Amnesty International. On May 15th bloggers gave up posting about their usual topics to highlight human rights issues. Yours Truly abstained from the daily fashion musings in favour of creating awareness of the Canadian government's troubling stance on the ongoing and largely shocking plights of Canada's Indigenous people. It featured a compelling article written by Dr. Kyle Grayson which you can read here.

The initiative appears to have resulted in millions of submissions on a vast array of human rights topics - I'd call that a roaring success. Well done, bloggers!
