On March 25, Rümeysa Öztürk was surrounded by plain clothes agents, removed from a street in Somerset, MA, arrested, and taken to a Louisiana detention facility where she has been held by ICE. The fact she cowrote an anti-Israel op-ed remains the only public justification for her arrest. #WPFD2025

PEN America joins @atriskartists.bsky.social in condemning the sentencing of Algerian poet Mohamed Tadjadit. We call on Algerian authorities to immediately and unconditionally release Tadjadit and end the persecution of writers and artists for their expression. pen.org/press-releas...

Saludos!
We focus on defending free expression in Mexico & the World.

As the most dangerous country for journalists, Mexico faces a harsh reality. We honor the courage of those who risk everything to report the truth.
