At the Voices of Change website, people are invited to sign a pledge that starts off like this;

As a member of _________________, I pledge to challenge violence in all of its forms, including sexual and domestic violence, racism, sexism, classism, heterosexism, harassment, homophobia, ableism, ageism, adultism, hate speech, and all other forms of oppression, as well as the hierarchies that oppression both depends upon and maintains.

I understand that these forms of violence are issues of power and privilege that impact the lives of all people including women, men, youth, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, two-spirit, and gender non-conforming people.
