Actions
Content
We create and share content to help and inspire counter speech, providing facts and information enabling the silent majority to speak up.
Support
We support the targeted and victimized, enabling them to speak out and we sustain each other, sticking together.
What Our Members say:
”Before I commented alone and I was insulted alone. This is no longer the case today and I can continue to promote my solidarity, the acceptance of difference. Today it’s easier with #jesuislà. Thank you for everything and even more for your support”
