Why VFP Supports Bradley Manning?

More than three years ago, Bradley Manning courageously broke the silence and exposed US war crimes in Iraq and Afghanistan. Ever since, corporate media and government agencies have been doing their best to cloak his heroism and suppress the existence of his ongoing trials.

On Monday June 3rd, we have the opportunity to stand up for Bradley. In his honor, we will make joyful noise -- blowing whistles, banging drums, and taking to the streets across the nation. Together, let's break the silence.
