June 13, 2014 by the Chelsea Manning Support Network
On Thursday, June 19 in New York, join OR Books and Chelsea Manning’s supporters to mark one year since she went on trial for leaking the Iraq and Afghanistan war logs to WikiLeaks. 
At TheaterLab (357 W 36th St, 3rd Floor, NYC) journalists, activists and artists who attended the trial will read from a new graphic book by Clark Stoeckley, “The United States vs Private Chelsea Manning: A Graphic Account From Inside the Courtroom”: http://www.orbooks.com/catalog/manning-trial
