Sign the Statement
We stand with the people of Egypt in their demand for freedom and basic rights, an end to the crackdown and internet blackout, and immediate democratic reform. We call on our governments to join us in our solidarity with the Egyptian people.
338,724 have signed the statement. Help get to 500,000
The regime is attempting to starve the protest movement of two crucial sources of power: information and solidarity. But despite the internet blackout, Egyptian radios and satellite TVs can still receive broadcasts from across the border — so Avaaz will work with broadcasters whose signals reach inside Egypt to circulate the number signatures on this statement of solidarity, along with messages of support from around the world for Egypt’s people.
Every hour matters. What happens next depends of all of us. Let’s stand with those on the streets and build a deafening outcry against rampant corruption and political repression, and for democratic reform. Sign the statement of solidarity–and spread the word about this campaign!

The people of Tunisia were the first to take to the streets to protest against the government there. This seems to have inspired the youth of Egypt to do the same. Then everybody, young and old, workers and academics students and taxi drivers joined in the protest. I give the Egyptians a big applause for standing up against an unjust regime. There always comes a time when change needs to occur. When that change happens people tend unite together and stand up for what they believe in. I think that for now the people of Egypt needs a better leader to guide them in the future after that 30-year regime of Egyptian Predsident Hosni Mubarak.
