”Challenge This Decision In The Name Of Human Dignity”
Madonna’s official statement on the imprisonment of a gay couple in Malawi.
“I am shocked and saddened by the decision made today by the Malawian court, which sentenced two innocent men to prison.
As a matter of principle, I believe in equal rights for all people, no matter what their gender, race, color, religion, or sexual orientation.
Today, Malawi took a giant step backward. The world is filled with pain and suffering; therefore, we must support our basic human right to love and be loved.
I call upon the progressive men and women of Malawiand around the worldto challenge this decision in the name of human dignity and equal rights for all.”
The above statement has now also been posted on Madonna’s official website, madonna.com.
