PFC Bradley Manning, 23, has been held in solitary confinement in the military brig, first in Kuwait and now Quantico, VA, since May, 2010, when he was arrested and accused of leaking classified information to the online whistleblower site, WikiLeaks . Gay identied, Manning has been held without trial now for 11 months and subjected to increasingly harsh and punitive treatment, including forced nudity and sleep deprivation. His case has garnered international media attention, leading notable gures such as Daniel Ellsberg and filmmaker Michael Moore to speak out in his support. Amnesty International and the United Nations have taken up his cause.

Bradley Manning Support Network steering committee member Loraine Reitman will speak about accused WikiLeaks informant Bradley Manning and the international, grassroots movement to lend him support. The informational presentation will be followed by a question and answer period. Reitman is an advocate for open government, privacy, and online free expression. In addition to her work on the Bradley Manning campaign, she serves as the activism director of the Electronic Frontier Foundation, a nonprofit civil liberties law firm and advocacy organization based in San Francisco.
