We recognize the right of the terminally ill to choose to end their suffering and receive medical help and assistance in doing so. We also recognize the right of medical personnel to choose not to participate in acts that contradict their own values. Economic violence also functions as a form of coercion. All people have a right to meet their basic needs of survival, and to determine the manner in which they will work to meet those needs. We support the right of all peoples to preserve their cultures, lands, heritage, and dignity, and to secure conditions which make possible sustainable and long- lasting communities.
Human beings have a right to free expression and free exchange of information.
We oppose censorship. We support the right of individuals and peoples to challenge authority and engage in political struggle to gain their rights. We oppose coercion, force, threats, and torture, and refuse to subsidize or support institutions that function by instilling fear. We recognize that individuals' goals may conflict. The right to self-determination does not include the right to harm others.
