Forum about Wikileaks: Don’t Shoot the Messenger

Description:
Don’t Shoot the Messenger
WikiLeaks, a free press publishing and media organisation, has revealed human rights abuses, war crimes and corruption in governments across the world. Yet the US Administration wants to close WikiLeaks down and prosecute its founder Julian Assange. International financial services organisations have blocked payments to WikiLeaks, denying them vital income. The Australian government has failed to take a stand against the political persecution of Assange. PM Gillard's assertion that WikiLeaks activities were illegal was proved to be false by an Australian Federal Police investigation.
What does all this say about our democracy?
Come to a public forum presented by the Support Assange & WikiLeaks Coalition, with:
Scott Ludlam, Greens Senator
Christine Assange, mother of Julian Assange
Humphrey McQueen, Historian, ANU
Chaired by Mary Kostakidis
FRIDAY 17TH FEBRUARY, 2012, 6.30 pm to 8.15 pm, University of Technology, Sydney, Room 02.04.13
