June 1st. Mass
demonstration for Bradley Manning. After more than three years of
imprisonment, including eleven months of solitary confinement, three time Nobel
Peace Prize nominee Bradley Manning’s trial will finally begin June 3, 2013, at
Fort Meade, Maryland. The outcome of this trial will determine whether a
conscience-driven 25-year-old WikiLeaks whistle-blower spends the rest of his
life in prison. Bradley believed that the American people have a right to know
the truth about what our government does around the world in our name.
This is our last chance before the court martial to stand up for Bradley.
Let's send a message to the military prosecuting authority, and President Obama,
that Bradley Manning is a patriot and heroic truth-teller.
When: June 1, 2013 - 1pm. Where: Fort Meade (Reece Road & US 175)

June
2nd. Panel on Manning and the Media. Pentagon Papers whistle-blower Daniel
Ellsberg, Government Accountability Project director and DOJ whistle-blower
Jesselyn Radack, Center for Constitutional Rights president emeritus Michael
Ratner , and former State Department employee Peter Van Buren will discuss how
WikiLeaks and the Bradley Manning trial have impacted journalism. The panelists
will examine how the information released by Bradley Manning helped shaped the
public’s understanding of war, diplomacy, and government secrecy, and the way
the press reports on each. They’ll explore how the government’s unprecedentedly
broad interpretation of “aiding the enemy” in prosecuting Bradley Manning
gravely threatens press freedoms in the United States.
When: June 2, 2013 – 5:00-7:00 Where: All Soul’s Church, 1500 Harvard
Street NW, Washington DC, 20009
