Don't go anywhere. Hang in there. Remind yourself that among all those deaf and blind journalists, you are needed. Turkey would be missing a big chance without you. I will advertise the blog to my Turkish friends. Doesn't Turkey get richer by the hour? Who knows maybe the newly rich, as the supporters of higher democracy, can spare 5 TL for freedom of speech.
Please keep on trying. Don't give up contacting people or agencies or institutions. The only way out of this injustice is through getting recognition. You are at an advantage. You live in the US. We can only do so much in Turkey as press cannot raise their voices as loudly as they should. Unless we fight for our own rights, nobody will do it for us.
If there are any journalists or just anyone interested on the case, please contact "Vardiya Bizde Platformu" on Twitter or Facebook, and they can be guided in terms of more details about the tiral and how they can come and watch the trials. The main thing is to make the trial visible to as many people as possible because seeing and hearing the arguments made there makes a huge difference and yet broadcasting the trials is not allowed at this point in time in Turkey so please make the effort to sign the petition on http://www.thepetitionsite.com/3/free-political-prisoners-in-turkiye-turkey/ or if you live in Turkey, you can physically sign another petition asking the Ministry of Justice to let a national TV channel to bradcast the trials live on TV."
