Fighting for Justice in 2010: Heroines and Heroes We Admire
by Jodi Jacobson, Editor in Chief, RH Reality Check
December 21, 2010 - 6:56pm (Print)
This year, we asked members of the community of RH Reality Check to share with us--and you--their heroines and heroes for 2010... those people who have worked to promote sexual and reproductive justice, environmental justice, women's human rights and the rights of LGBT persons. Just to be clear: This was not a contest and we did not intend to "choose" among these amazing people; rather we intended to recognize them all, as they were submitted by their colleagues.
Below are brief profiles of the people recognized by our colleagues, and the names of those who submitted them. The names appear in alphabetical order.
We give a special thanks to all the heroines and heroes working for rights and justice everywhere, and thank each of them, whether named here or not.
