A Call to Free Ai Weiwei

Artist and activist Ai Weiwei has been detained in China on his way to Hong Kong on Sunday.  He has been missing for 96 hours so far and no one has any details about where he is and whether or not he is even being charged with anything.  Human rights lawyers can't do anything until he has been formally charged.
 
Please join the facebook page to free Ai Weiwei to spread awareness and exert pressure on the Chinese Governement to at least charge him or let him out of the country.
 
 
 
More info on Ai Weiwei here, from the New York Times here and Washinton Post here.
