About this Petition Petition Letter Petition Updates

Oprah,

You are adored throughout Saudi Arabia, a country often described as the world's largest women's prison and the only place on earth where women are not allowed to drive.

For the first time in more than two decades, we Saudi women are rising up, demanding the right to vote and taking to the streets in the drivers seat. 

Protesting the de facto ban on female drivers, IT Specialist and Saudi mother Manal Al-Sharif was recently arrested, jailed, and required to promise to give up encouraging women to take the wheel.

Since then, several more women have been arrested driving.

Oprah, in this critical moment, we Saudi women need your voice!

Won't you honk to support us? All we ask is that you join the "Honk for Saudi Women" movement: take a short video of yourself saying you support Saudi women's right to drive, honk you car horn, and send the YouTube link to honkforsaudiwomen@change.org.

Thanks Oprah! We love you!
