    I am truly devastated that Nairobi's High Court declined to repeal Kenya's anti-gay law. But I'm standing in solidarity with our partners & all LGBTQI Kenyans and hold firm in my belief that justice and love will prevail. Onward to the next court.

    Jetsada Taesombat is transforming Thailand into a safe place for transgender people. The story of how she got there is a powerful reminder of why we need today.

    Human rights violations + persecution of a free press are hallmarks of authoritarian rule. It is critical that the Burmese government continue to enact major reforms in protection of its people, including holding perpetrators of the violence against the Rohingya accountable.

    What a relief to see Reuters reporters Wa Lone and Kyaw Soe Oo finally free. As the son of a journalist, I know firsthand the importance of protecting the free press. Myanmar's leaders can't be allowed to cover up atrocities by imprisoning journalists.

    Great news out of Burma. Journalists should be free from the fear of being violently attacked or arrested for doing their jobs. The right of reporters to report the news is the right of all of us to know what is happening in our respective countries and in our world.

    Two Reuters journalists jailed in Myanmar free at last.

    I implore the Burmese government to implement critical legal and constitutional reforms to remove restrictions on civil and political rights. We must continue our efforts to protect journalists and strengthen civil society in Burma moving forward.

    They are still living without their citizenship rights and access to formal education or livelihoods. They deserve justice for the crimes exposed by Wa Lone and Kyaw Soe Oo.

    Today is also a day to listen to the Rohingya people and all in Burma who have suffered from the crimes that Wa Lone and Kyaw Soe Oo exposed. Nearly one million Rohingya people are still living in camps in Bangladesh, denied formal education and basic citizenship rights.

    Today, I am celebrating the release of these two brave Reuters journalists in Burma who had been wrongly imprisoned for over 500 days for reporting on the genocide.
