<span>Our civil liberties
developed painstakingly by generations of historically great thinkers
are vanishing at an alarming rate. The United States is more than losing
its standing on the global stage as a democracy; it is relinquishing
its stature as a country that abides by the rule of law. <br> <br> Our panel of speakers sound the alarm and formulate ways for all of us to work together and make a difference.<br> <br><span> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/birgitta.jonsdottir.english?directed_target_id=0" target="_blank">Birgitta Jónsdóttir English</a><br>

Daniel Ellsberg was a high-level military planner who leaked the
Pentagon Papers, a top-secret study of the Vietnam War becoming
America's most well-known whistleblower. He is a founding board member

Foundation and plaintiff-litigant in the NDAA case Hedges v. Obama.<br> <br> Norman Solomon<br> Journalist, media critic, anti-war activist, co-founder of Rootsaction.org, author of “War Made Easy.”<br> <br> Nadia Kayyali<br>

<br>
Our experts will address the paramount civil liberty issues of our time
including the chilling effect of the military detention provisions of
the NDAA - National Defense Authorization Act signed into law by Obama
in January 2012. The panelists will also discuss other threats to civil
liberties and what we can do to turn the erosion of these liberties
around.<br> <br> The panel will also create a platform for all of us to
reflect and question the increasing government surveillance of its
citizens including journalists and activist groups as well as the
blatant violations of the Constitution by the US government with the
supposed legal justification of war powers and state security. At an
alarming rate whistleblowers are criminalized and overprosecuted for
exposure of state corruption and illegality under the rubric of state
security at the expense of hard won liberties. Other issues for
discussion are the global militarization of our police forces and extra
judicial assassinations .These profound shifts in the governments
overreach on many fronts affects the lives of all of us even though they
may appear to only affect the few. This interactive and co-creative
discussion will highlight direct actions that each of us can engage to
effect change wherever we <br> are.<br> <br> <br> $10 contribution
