Defending Chelsea Manning

President Obama has persecuted whistleblowers with a vengeance not seen since the Nixon administration. Chief among his victims is gay, alleged wikileaker Chelsea Manning.

In this episode of the Gay Liberation Network on CAN TV, the Gay Liberation Network’s Bob Schwartz talks to anti-war activist Stan Smith about why, far from being villain, Chelsea Manning should be regarded as a hero.

As this episode was originally broadcast in 2012, the speakers refer to Private Manning by her former name, “Bradley.”
