Whenever someone hears about what is happening, they want to help. Take action by writing President Clinton, Secretary of State Albright, members of Congress, and UN Secretary General Annan. Urge that the U.S. do everything in its power to stop gender apartheid and restore the human rights of women and girls in Afghanistan. The Feminist Majority's website has instant e-mails and faxes with sample messages for people to send. Help spread the word and tell others about the plight of women and girls in Afghanistan.
People can circulate petitions to friends and colleagues.
The Campaign to Stop Gender Apartheid is co-sponsored by 129 U.S. women's organizations.
