25 April is the International Day to Defend Bangladeshi Bloggers.

Islamists want 84 bloggers dead for speaking their minds. Rather than arrest and prosecute the Islamists, the Bangladeshi government has arrested 4 bloggers and promises to arrest more!

And so the fight continues between Islamists and their appeasers on the one hand and freethinkers, secularists, atheists, socialists and humanists on the other. This fight is global and is taking place as we speak in every corner of the globe…

Defending Bangladesh’s bloggers, defends us all. Any harm that befalls them, harms us all.

On 25 April, come out in full force to stand with and defend them.

Upload your actions and protests on social media sites. Join the day’s Facebook Page. Contact the Bangladeshi embassy in your country of residence and sign the petition now.  Tweet #Bangladesh #Bloggers and more.
