What's happening to Julian Assange is the world's slowest execution. It's payback from the government whose war crimes he exposed. It's a revenge killing because he committed journalism.
Every reporter must denounce it if only for the goal of protecting our right to do our jobs.
In a major blow to press freedom worldwide, a U.K. court ruled Julian Assange can be extradited to the U.S. to face Espionage Act charges. It marks the first time anyone "has been prosecuted with felony charges for publishing truthful information," says @ACLU's @BenWizner.
If you truly care about the truth you will want people to believe it. Say it in the most hearable way possible without compromising in the slightest. Don't say it in an unnecessarily abrasive way and then, when rejected, pat yourself on the back for being valiant for truth.
Stop what you're doing and read this. The CIA developed plans to kill or kidnap an award-winning journalist whose work they did not like — before they charged him with a crime.
The case against Julian Assange must be dropped—and condemned.

Got my old art professor/ mentor to be the star model of the collection 5 look book. This man pushed me to drop out of college and pursue my dreams in fashion. He would even let me practice my public speaking on his classes. Having him here means the world to me.
