<br class="">
This is a short but passionate appeal to you all to help support our<br class="">
colleagues going on trial tomorrow in Morocco for their work as human<br class="">
rights defenders and technology researchers.<br class="">
<br class="">
As many of you know, among those on trial will be my friend and<br class="">
colleague Hisham Almiraat, who many of you know.<br class="">
<br class="">
If you're able, please join Global Voices' statement of support and<br class="">
circulate among your networks. In Hisham's words, "the [the Moroccan<br class="">
authorities] think we're nobodies, they will crush us." This is to say<br class="">
that any support is much, much appreciated.<br class="">
<br class="">
