Now it has blossomed into a full-sized track appearing on Fresh Juice Party’s new album “Where’s Our Change?” (coming in September). My, how they grow up so fast. Thanks to the courageous people whose voices you’ll hear on this track: Daniel Ellsberg, Col. Ann Wright, Ray McGovern and Thomas Drake. All spoken-word excerpts were recorded at FJP’s Occupy the Truth: Whistleblowers Conference in February 2012. http://www.freshjuiceparty.com/book-of-proceedings/

Transcript:

TIMES NOW: …Do you think the American government will get you?
JULIAN ASSANGE: I don’t think so. But only because we have a lot of support. It really is like that, we have people supporting us, doing a lot in various levels from demonstrations in the street to just recently, just yesterday 12 people went to an Obama fundraiser, paid 5,000 dollars per person*, sat at the table and altogether got up and sung how unhappy they were with the White House’s treatment of Bradley Manning, our alleged source who is in military prison. That spectrum of support is what is keeping us strong, is what is keeping these forces at bay…

[*Note: Our seats, as well as those of all of the activists who joined our protest, were donated.]

Whether or not that is true, this video is a chilling glimpse into the problems created when transparency is not a priority. Transparency promotes peace; so the military has an interest in quashing it.

February 17-19, 2012

Today we will kickoff our “Occupy the Truth: Whistleblowers Conference!” The three day event will begin at 6pm on Friday, February 17th with a Bradley Manning Panel featuring Daniel Ellsberg, Ann Wright and Ray McGovern, followed by a performance by Reverend Billy!

While an impressive list of attendees physically gather in Berkeley, CA, there will be opportunities for contemporaneous online participation via Twitter #TruthCon, live streaming, chats, and possibly Skype for those who must attend remotely due to distance or desire to remain Anonymous. Please email us at info@freshjuiceparty.com to receive updates for online participation.

Transparency needs your brain. Whistleblowers need your protection. Fresh Juice Party invites you to bring your ideas.

Please join journalists, former military personnel, academics, activists, policy makers, media experts, filmmakers and whistleblowers for an open discussion designed to encourage unexpected interdisciplinary alliances and action.

Join us Friday night, Feb. 17 for a mixer at 6pm, 7:00 -8:30 panel discussion about Bradley Manning featuring Daniel Ellsberg, Ann Wright, Ray McGovern and Birgitta Jonsdottir, followed by an entertaining and thought provoking “sermon” by the legendary Reverend Billy.

Saturday and Sunday, Feb. 18-19 will be a first of its kind activist/expert un-conference mix so expect to be surprised. This will be a unique participant driven environment where we will co-create the agenda for the day. Sharing, networking and creating new alliances will be central to providing strategies and support for whistleblowers. While attendees physically gather in Berkeley, there will be opportunities for contemporaneous online participation via Twitter #TruthCon, live streaming, chats, and possibly Skype for those who must attend remotely due to distance or desire to remain Anonymous. Please email us at info@freshjuiceparty.com to receive updates for online participation.

Come and enjoy the freedom of discussion and mobility of an unconference where serious discussion interplays with an open space atmosphere of creativity and play.
