Chelsea Manning is at once, celebrated for transparency and at the same time a polarizing figure for disclosing more than 700,000 classified military and diplomatic documents to WikiLeaks in 2011. Manning, who was a U.S. Army intelligence analyst in Iraq at the time, was convicted by court-martial for her whistleblowing and sentenced to 35 years in prison in 2013, the longest sentence ever handed down in an American leak case.
Join Here & Now co-host Robin Young in a conversation with Manning where she’ll discuss her much anticipated memoir, “README.txt,” and recount her early life as a computer savvy kid, what drew her to the military, her gender transition while at Fort Leavenworth prison and her life now as an activist and also DJ.
Signed copies of “README.txt” will be available for purchase from our bookstore partner Brookline Booksmith.
