| "Prevention of Injury (POI)" by Kyle Broom |
PS - If you haven't seen this amazing short film by Kyle Broom - "Prevention of Injury (POI)" - stop what you're doing right now and take 20 minutes to watch it and think about what is being done to Bradley Manning.
Bradley Manning is an American hero. As one of the speakers said at the International Human Rights Day protest in Chicago, "Would there have been an Arab Spring without Bradley? Would there have been an Occupy movement? We should be giving him the Congressional Medal of Honor! We should give HIM the Nobel Peace Prize!"
What are people doing in YOUR community to demand, "Free Bradley!" ??

Bradley Manning?(See Are YOU Ready to Swallow a Daily Dose of "the Manning Principle"?)
