We are asking all good people of conscience to co-sign their name to the below Open Letter. The letter calls on relevant international bodies and non-governmental agencies to take immediate action to endorse and preserve the human rights and liberty of Suzie and her children, and to protect them from being thrust back into the waiting arms of her persecutors. Once you have read and signed the letter, please share it with friends, colleagues and family to help us protect this brave Kiwi journalist. Thank you
We, the undersigned, have reviewed the overwhelming evidence of New Zealand journalist Suzie Dawson’s political persecution as posted on this website and call on international bodies and NGO's to step up and advocate for the protection of Suzie and her family from this persecution.
It is unacceptable that a young mother and her children have been subjected to extreme psychological distress after years of targeting and harassment by the very entities Suzie held to account through her journalistic work and activism. Suzie and her children deserve, at the very least, to live free of this persistent abuse.
Due to a combination of discrimination based on Suzie's country of origin and her association with other high value targets, neglect and lack of resource, Suzie and her family are effectively in limbo and require urgent intervention from appropriate parties in order to resolve their situation in a way that reinforces and is consistent with their human rights.
Suzie Dawson is not and has never been a threat to the public but rather a peaceful, pro-democratic activist whose journalistic work has been published on three continents, in multiple languages, and is of a great benefit to the public. We therefore exhort you to provide Suzie Dawson and her young family the support and advocacy necessary to ensure that they are protected from the powerful entities that have demonstrated repeatedly that they will stop at nothing to harm her.

The case and the means used against Julian Assange are terrifying and completely unjust. Julian Assange, as well as any kind of whistleblower and contributor, have a right to inform the public and is the very concept of journalism. If you allow Julian Assange to be fully condemned by the prosecution, you will ultimately allow governments to completely regulate and shut down media/activism meant to provide the public with the truth. The world understands this danger, and the world needs you to defend Julian Assange and the great journalism he provides. Thank you. |

Suzie is one of many individuals dealing with corruption; this is a global crisis and no one with the power to do something about this, has done anything to stop it. It is inexcusable the treatment of humanity at this point in time. Stop torturing and killing intelligent people just because they are on to your games. There isn’t a future where evil wins, just give up already. |

NZ's alignment opens it to invidious pressures to compromise itself, such as by spying on Suzie Dawson. To end such pressures, NZ needs to become a truly independent, neutral nation, able to act constructively between US & Russia, China & others, unbeholden to any 1 of them. |
