What is the FREEDOM campaign?

August 18th, 2007 by Weco

‘Freedom is the right, or the capacity, of self-determination, as an expression of the individual will. ‘ – http://en.wikipedia.org
 
People all over the world strive for personal and public freedom everyday. Sometimes freedom can have different meanings for different individuals. For some it could be finding a quiet moment to gather their daily thoughts, whereas, for others it could be overcoming exploitation, fighting for civil rights or for the environment.
 
On 13th August 2007 we suddenly realised what Freedom is.  It dawned on us that we should promote & celebrate Freedom, protect the freedoms that we already have, and what it took thousands of people, thousands of years to achieve – not forgetting their sacrifice.  While thinking about what to have for breakfast that morning, a further realisation occurred to the team – does everyone enjoy the rights and freedom we enjoy?  Clearly not!  Why not?  So a part of our campaign is to spread awareness of all the Freedoms we should still be striving for. 
 
We decided on four broad categories
 
Political freedom is simple.  It is the right for every “people’s” of this little planet to live their lives according to their own wishes.  In other words no country has the right to subjugate another culture or country. Our campaign marks the end of imperialism, the exploitation of culture and race and the growth of democracy. We are celebrating people’s right to govern themselves and supporting nations where political freedom is absent. We actively lobby and promote to free exploited countries and cultures. Some of these include Tibet, Peruvian Indigenous people and persecution of minorities in all Middle East Countries.
 
Environmental Freedom is our little dream.  It is the right of every living thing on this planet to live. 
 
It’s funny really, but when you’re in tune with reality, not everything smells like roses, especially when it comes to Economic Freedom, that’s when things really stink of exploitation.  A Ghanaian friend of ours recently told us a “stinking” story.  Did you know that British grown tomatoes are cheaper to buy in Ghana than Ghanaian tomatoes, which come from the farm down the road!  How can this possibly be?  It just doesn’t make sense!
 
Well at Wecomeone we believe in the Free Market – so lets make it really free for all people of this planet and not just a few that enjoy government subsidies.    
 
What religion are you?  Do you even believe in God?  Do you believe in global warming?  Do you believe we have a good education system in this country? 
 
So where did you get your beliefs from – your local church, down the pub, from the Sun newspaper, from your teacher, or did you truly realize the truth for yourself?  Are we thinking – or are we merely following? 
 
At Wecomeone, we want to have the Freedom of Thought.
