Comics Week: Local Comics Store Manager Provides Digital Safe Haven


Here in North Alabama, one man is making sure every Iranian citizen has the opportunity to be heard.

He has helped set up a web site for citizen journalists in Iran. It has several safeguards to protect people’s identities, allowing them to speak freely about their experiences in a country where repression of journalists is all too common.

Hey! We know that guy (@joshmull) and we could not be prouder.
