This lunchtime saw one of the first big pushes for Protect The Human in the wider web - our friends at Amnesty are raising awareness via BoingBoing of the plight of Troy Davis, condemned to death for a murder he maintains he did not commit.

It’s very exciting to see how the PTH platform gives Amnesty the tools it needs to quickly respond to issues as and when they arise - clemency was denied to Troy Davis a matter of days ago and with the potential to gather support from across the web using PTH to push out to Facebook, digg, delicious and others, Amnesty supporters could make the difference to obtain a total stay of execution.

Follow the conversation on Protect The Human, and take a five minute action to save a man’s life.
