Today on our show, Wikileaks founder and journalist Julian Assange is finally free. We speak with Chip Gibbons, the policy director for Defending Rights and Dissent about the long fight to secure his release. Then we get an update about Haiti with Flashpoints Special Correspondent Maud Jean-Michel and the 400 Kenyan police that landed there earlier today…ostensibly to help fight gangs. For the second half of the show we go with Senior Producer Miguel Gavilan Molina and his crew on the ground in Standing Rock North Dakota featuring special reports from the Global Conference of the International Indian Treaty Council.
