On Thursday, November 18th, 2021, we’re taking action for the PHRA!

Join us at Union Square at the National Mall in Washington D.C. for our Tsinelas art display & rally.

On November 18th, organizers from the Coalition for the Philippine Human Rights Act will lay out 3,000 “Tsinelas,” the Tagalog word for sandals or flip flops, out on the National Mall by 3rd Street across Union Square to represent the 30,000 killings under Duterte.

At 3 PM, we will host a rally to demand the passage of the Philippine Human Rights Act, H.R. 3884.

Why are we doing the Tsinelas Action?

Despite the well-documented and widespread human rights violations of the Duterte regime in the Philippines, the United States government has continued to provide millions of dollars of military aid and approve billions of dollars of arms sales to the Philippine government. Given the number of killings and the repression under the current regime in the Philippines, it would be a moral failure of the United States to continue to give military aid to the Philippines while such human rights violations continue.

Starting Saturday, November 13th and leading up to the day of the event, we will have remote actions you can do to help raise awareness of the action and legislation including social media prompts and phone zaps. Supporters can also help fund the action by the button below.
