About Face, now available directly from Courage to Resist for only $20 (free shipping). For the upcoming September events, Bradley Manning Support Network organizer Emma Cape (photo below right) will be speaking about the case of alleged WikiLeaks whistle-blower PFC Bradley Manning, who has been imprisoned for over a year without trial. Key points of the presentation include: 1) the content of the leaked documents, which have been mentioned in over a third of all New York Times editions of the past year, 2) the WikiLeaker's motivations, as revealed in chat logs attributed to Bradley Manning by the FBI, 3) development of the case, including the UN's attempt to investigate alleged torture of PFC Manning in Quantico, VA and 4) the growing international campaign to support Bradley Manning, who many view as the greatest war crime whistle-blower since Daniel Ellsberg released the Pentagon Papers.
