Now is a critical time to stand for Julian Assange.

We hope everyone is doing ok after all the fires & amidst pandemic times.
Sadly, the show trial of Julian Assange marches on, and intensifies our need to ACT to save his life - along with saving our freedom of speech & journalism worldwide. His extradition hearing starts on September 7, 2020 at the Old Bailey in London. It is anticipated to last for three weeks.
We would like to show our solidarity with the global #Candles4Assange events in support of Julian. Please join us in:
- VIRTUALLY by sharing a photo of your live, virtual, solo, or group events/actions around the Bay Area this month.
- Join us LIVE at our event on September 7th, if you can, to stand for Julian Assange in peaceful protest. Our main goal is presence & educating the public with fliers and information.Please bring signs/banners/fliers if you have them, but mainly just show up. Safe distancing & masks please.
- We realize that not everyone can attend live or in San Francisco. We’re glad to support anyone having any sort of action. NO ACTION IS TOO SMALL & ANYTHING POSITIVE/WELL-INTENTIONED HELPS!
Julian’s farce trial is set to go on for weeks; any action you may take on any day will add to the cumulative difference. But NOW is the time.
Please let us know & we’ll be glad to post it on the website & promote it via adding your city to the global protests list on @Candles4Assange, #Unity4J, and @action_4assange.
We hope to share/post as many photos as possible of ANY actions. Please email directly to admin@bayaction2freeassange.org OR tag @JeaniRN on Twitter noting BayAction2FreeAssange.

DONATIONS:
Julian’s partner & mother of their two children, @Stellamoris1, has started a fundraiser for legal fees. No contribution is too small.
As Stella has expressed the importance of educating the public on Julian’s case, as has his mother, @MrsC_Assange, noting how important it is to reach outside our immediate bubble. Many people don’t know about Julian’s case due to media blackout. Or they may only know the smears promoted by mainstream media worldwide. It is up to each of us to spread the truth to save his life.
