Free Chelsea Manning!

From WSWS:

This morning, a federal judge ordered whistleblower Chelsea Manning to prison on contempt charges for refusing to answer questions from a grand jury convened to bring chargers against WikiLeaks and its publisher Julian Assange. The Socialist Equality Party unequivocally condemns the US government’s vindictive and criminal persecution of Chelsea Manning. Get involved and join a protest The SEP and the International Youth and Students for Social Equality call on workers and young people to fight against the persecution of Manning, including through mass demonstrations to demand her freedom. The SEP and IYSSE will be organizing rallies and meetings, with more details to come. Chelsea suffered solitary confinement, abuse and torture, and over six years of imprisonment for letting the American and world population know the truth. Yesterday, she once again stood firm to fundamental democratic principle and refused to assist the Trump administration in its vendetta to falsely incriminate WikiLeaks and Julian Assange. She is a heroic figure and she must be defended. Working people all over the world will never forget Chelsea’s courageous exposure, at vast personal cost, of the crimes of American imperialism. Amid a growing global strike wave, the Socialist Equality Party will do everything in its power to mobilize the working class to free Chelsea, Julian Assange and all other class war prisoners. “In solidarity with many activists facing the odds, I will stand by my principles. I will exhaust every legal remedy available. My legal team continues to challenge the secrecy of these proceedings, and I am prepared to face the consequences of my refusal.” — Chelsea Manning There are quite a few people who should be in jail in relation to what @xychelsea and @wikileaksreleased, but neither Chelsea Manning nor Julian Assange number among them. #FreeChelseaManning #FreeChelseaNOW — SEP National Secretary Joseph Kishore Find out more
