Justice for Brandon Lee! April 2025 Week of Action

*Please select "International Affairs" for your letter topic and put something along the lines of "Meeting with Brandon Lee!" for your letter topic!

Brandon Lee is a Chinese American human rights and environmental activist, born and raised in San Francisco. He moved to the Philippines in 2010 to live and work with indigenous peoples in the Cordillera region as a community journalist, paralegal and indigenous rights advocate. On August 6, 2019, the Philippine military shot Brandon in front of his home.

Brandon is only one among more than 30,000 victims of extra-judicial killings and state-sponsored violence during the Rodrigo Duterte regime’s brutal campaign to silence and suppress journalists, activists, human rights defenders and the poor. Though Duterte has recently been arrested by the International Criminal Court for his crimes against humanity, state violence against people in the Philippines continues to this day.

The Justice for Brandon Lee Campaign is a broad-based initiative of organizations, churches, and individuals who support Brandon Lee, and his pursuit of justice and accountability. Together, we seek to expose the continuing repression against the Filipino people, aided by US tax dollars in the form of military and police funding and support!

Join us for our Week of Action as we call on Brandon's representatives to meet with him in San Francisco during their Congressional recess (April 14-25) to discuss how they can support the call to demand Justice for Brandon Lee!
