| schestowitz[TR2] | "Hi everyone, | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | I'm working on an audiobook guide on writing for digital rights | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | activism for 11-14 year olds. The book follows Amelia and Daniel, | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | students of Liberty Heights Junior High, as they get ready to give a | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | big speech that reveals their school has been spying on them through | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | their school laptops Webgame-gate style. (If that sounds familiar, the | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | workshop I advertised here a couple weeks ago was a trial run for | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | this). | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | I've arranged local theatre students to play the parts of Chloe and | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | Oliver (victims of spying) as well as Amelia and Daniel. However, I | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | still need some of the adult parts cast before I finalise my script and | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | record with the students. These are the parts: | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | 1. Kindly Drama Teacher, ca. 3 minutes of speaking. | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | She's 30- or 40-something and a little eccentric. She helps Amelia get | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | over her fear of speaking in public. | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | This would need to be recorded via video conference. | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | 2. Female Lawyer, ca. 150 words | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | She works for a small civil liberties charity that picks up Chloe and | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | Oliver's case. She's old enough to have a daughter in the first year of | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | uni. I'd prefer an middle-class Canadian, Midwestern American, British | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | or Australian accent for this one. | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | This could be recorded by yourself on a smartphone or laptop. | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | 3. Mr. Fulbright, School Board Member (ca. 70 words) | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | He interrupts Amelia's climactic speech with quibbles about what the | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | spyware is capable of. He thinks Amelia is cute but wrong and is a | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | touch condescending. Of course, he's hiding he knew about the spying | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | all along... | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | This is best for a late middle-aged man. The audio needs to be very | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | clear. | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | 4. Public meeting announcer (ca. 50 words) | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | Another middle-aged man. His role is just to introduce Amelia before | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | she speaks. This audio also needs to be very clear. | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | If you (or anyone you know) might want to play these parts, I could | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | really use your help. Please ask people you know who like to act! | Sep 11 01:54 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | Thanks. | Sep 11 01:54 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | "A great deal of commentary on this subject treats a handful of law firms as a coordinated network working to protect favoured defendants. Some of it is fair. Garden Court is a genuinely, openly left-aligned set, ranked as a leading chambers for protest law and civil liberties, with a client history that includes Extinction Rebellion defendants and a self-description — “do right, fear no-one” — that leaves little doubt | Sep 11 07:11 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | about its politics. Hodge Jones & Allen has a similarly long history of progressive, civil-liberties work: the Colston Four, Just Stop Oil, Grenfell Tower, Stephen Lawrence, Hillsborough. Both firms genuinely are what critics say they are. | Sep 11 07:11 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | But the broader claim collapses once you check the other names usually bundled in with them. Brett Wilson LLP, frequently cited in the same breath, is principally a media law and defamation firm whose client list runs across the political spectrum. "\ | Sep 11 07:11 |
