Who We Are

Coalition for Citizens Rights is an human rights organization dedicated to freedom of speech and press, and internet freedom, in China. This organization was founded in May 2008, and its former website, http://www.cfcr2008.org/, has been constantly under attack since its appearance in June 2008. Attackers have compromised this website in 2010 and placed malicious code on it. We warn that this website is not to be opened even if it is back to normal. This website, http://www.gongminziyoulianmeng.blogspot.com/, shall serve as official site of "Coalition for Citizens Rights".

Freedom for Liu Xiaobo and Chen Guangcheng

We call on the Chinese government to release Liu Xiaobo, the 2010 Nobel Laureate for peace prize who was sentenced to 11 years in prison in 2009 for writing "Charter 08", an article calling for rule of law, freedom of speech and constitutional reform; and freedom for Chen Guangcheng, a blind human rights lawyer who served 4 years and 3 months in prison for providing legal assistance to victims of forced abortion and sterilization and has been placed under house arrest since his release from prison in 2011.

高健:维权之路,路在何方?

        数十名因城市改造而失去私有房产的上海市民到北京向领导人拜年,被北京警方指非法上访而遭关押,其中至少又有三人因为到东郊民巷温家宝总理住所拜年而被警方拘留十天。王扣玛是这次在北京关押的上海拜年团成员之一,他曾因向地方政府讨公道而被判刑一年半。此次拜年,他先被大批警察送到访民集散中心,他头部遭到殴打,后来又受到警察两三个小时的训诫。中华人民共和国土地管理法第十一条,国家法律保护土地使用证,土地所有权和使用权,任何单位和个人不得侵犯公民上述权利。中国政府近年来对土地的无理征用,导致了很多人失去了他们的家园,政府对这些无家可归的人置之不理。民众想讨个说法,可是却是有冤无处申。中国的人权在哪里,上访是人民无奈的选择。可如今,上访这唯一的道路也被堵死,敢问,维权之路,路在何方?
