Avaaz is the campaigning community bringing people-powered politics to decision making worldwide + my Comment--Watch the video

My Comment:  ️FABULOUS video, made me cry with happiness. Those who resist Trump's ugly attempt at the acquisition of total power and the money that sustains it keep on keeping on as there are those billions you do not even know who are with us fighting the Trumpian madness here and other nationalist and right wing extremists around the world.  They are resisting the racist run of the few to ruin the lives of the many by stopping right wing extremism from taking it all--taking our healthcare, taking our savings and finally if we allow it taking our lives. No more passively looking at corruption and hate, shrugging our shoulders because we can do something, we can reject right wing extremist hate here and around the world, WE CAN RESIST!!  Send this to everyone you know and it will be sent to those you don't know. RESIST!  Then watch the video.

This video recorded by Avaaz team members is going viral! It's a shot of hope and love for 2018 -- will you help share it and spread the joy across the world? Watch and share it now:


2017 was a rough year, but wow, is the resistance on fire! We've never been prouder of our movement -- both Avaaz, and all those we stand with.

We've stopped the rise of the far-right in several countries, frustrated Trumpism in almost every major accomplishment it sought, opened our hearts to refugees, won major battles to protect our planet, and defeated toxic foes from Monsanto to Rupert Murdoch.

The best part is the WAY we're winning. Not through fear, anger and manipulation, but through love, hope and smarts. We are being the change we wish to see, and building the world we dream of, each step of the way. And we're doing it, TOGETHER.

So bring it on, 2018!!!

With gratitude for all you lovely people who made all this happen, and hope for the year to come,

Ricken, Emma, Fatima, Alice, Nana, Spyro, Nataliya, Danny and the whole Avaaz team.

P.S. If you're feeling hopeless right now -- yes, the threats are real, but if we give up hope where does that leave us? Our grandparents faced far worse with far less -- we can't throw our hands up now. Lots of love to you! And let's all beware the media we're reading this year -- the far-right and the Russian government have an OBJECTIVE of making engaged citizens like us cynical by spinning stories and lies (especially on Facebook) that destroy hope and trust in democracy, institutions, media and each other. Here's evidence for that (Guardian). Let's fight smart for everything we love in 2018!!!
