West Papua is rising

Click for more global actions one person can take

West Papuan students have begun an uprising which is being violently suppressed by the Indonesian police and military. Indonesian Police in Jayapura West Papua are meting out arbitrary vengeance after violent clashes with student demonstrators. Students were protesting for the closure of the New Orleans based Freeport-McMoRan Grasberg copper and gold mine, one of the largest mines in the world. "We want Freeport to close because it has not given any benefits to the people of Papua," one protestor told the ABC. "In fact, it's made them suffer."

Rally and march on April 2 to Free West Papua, and to free the 43 West Papuan refugees held on Christmas Island.
