Hello!
Welcome back to The Ledger. We had a rare week off on Redacted Tonight, but that doesn’t mean I don’t have great stuff for you.
If reading isn’t enough and you want to do some writing, here are great options:
Write to Julian Assange as he sits in jail in the UK: writejulian.com (follow the instructions carefully, police states love screwing us with arbitrary rules)
Also, write to Chelsea Manning at xychelsea.is
AND if you’re really in a writing mood - send a quick op-ed to me at LeeCampLedger@protonmail.com and I might publish it on Reader Submissions.
