Amnesty International - preparations for the 2019 Write for Rights starting

Hi! This Monday was a very important day for all of the Amnesty International Club members. On that day preparations for this year's Write for Rights officially started in our school. We talked about the campaign: how it works, what the aim is and why it is important. It was possible to sign up for doing a presentation about one of the people we fight for this time and so I did. My friend Michał and I are going to talk about Magai Matiop Ngong, a teenager from South Sudan who was unjustly sentenced to death for accidentally killing his cousin when he was only 15.
I am very happy to be able to be a part of a movement like this, because I know, how much it means for people like Magai. For us, it's just letter writing. For them, this campaign can be a life-saver. One person doing something small won't change the world, but when hundreds of thousands of activists work together, they can achieve a lot and make our world a better place.
