Solidarity with Daw Suu: Sign up to Arrest Yourself Now


Dear Mike,

This month, on June 19th, Aung San Suu Kyi will spend her 65th birthday under house arrest. Join us in our call for solidarity with Aung San Suu Kyi and let her know that she is not alone in her fight for freedom and democracy in Burma. Sign up to host an Arrest Yourself event in her honor now!

Burma's military regime is truly mistaken in thinking that barbed wires can contain her and her popularity. If the ruling junta thinks that the upcoming sham elections will legitimize the military occupation of Burma, they are wrong! We must prove to the world that Aung San Suu Kyi is the true leader of Burma; nobody in Burma is as widely loved and admired, or as trusted by Burma's many ethnic minorities as she is.

At 65, Aung San Suu Kyi's spirit and determination still drum strong, as does her role as an icnoic freedom fighter and unifier of peace. Her continued detention is our greatest reminder that we cannot be complacent with this regime's crimes. We must stand in solidarity with Aung San Suu Kyi and call for her immediate and unconditional release. Through our unity and collective action, we will send one loud, clear message to Than Shwe and his cronies: We condemn your sham elections and your illegitimate regime! Show your solidarity with Aung San Suu Kyi and sign up for an Arrest Yourself event today.

20 years ago, Nelson Mandela walked free after 27 years of imprisonment. Now it's time for Aung San Suu Kyi to be free. Help us raise a million voices for the Lady of Burma on her 65th birthday. Pledge today to host an Arrest Yourself party in her honor.

With hope,

Nadi Hlaing
