Update 7/6/12: World Pride day, Bradley Manning panel discussion, The Passion of Bradley Manning
Tomorrow, July 7, support Bradley Manning for World Pride Day in London. Queer Friends of Bradley Manning write:
This Saturday (7th July) is World Pride in London and Queer Friends of Bradley Manning are marching again after their successful debut last year.
Please come and join us! We’ll be meeting from between 10:15 and 11:00 (the procession starts at 11:00 and I wouldn’t advise coming much after 11:00 – it will be difficult to join us once we’ve moved off).
The pre-march line-up takes place in Baker Street. Queer Friends of Bradley Manning are in the Green Section which meets from half way down Dorset Street up to Paddington Street – so if you walk that stretch of Baker Street you should find us).
Please call me if you have problems finding us please give me a call (you can get my number by emailing me at ‘queerfriendsofbradley gmail com’. I’ll get there for 10:15 and I’ll lay the banner on the ground for people to see.
The march finishes at 13:30 at Whitehall where we’ll have to disperse.
We look forward to seeing you on Saturday!
