Told us about Hao Wu, who was disappeared by the Chinese government for his blog.  He did not know Hao, he had 8 emails from him.  When Hao was detained, they were hesitant about advocating for his release, because of the family’s fears. But that changed, and they mounted a full court press, including getting and posting photos of his life.  

Don’t speak. Point.  It is getting easier for people around the world to speak on behalf of themselves.  Advocate’s best strategy is often just to point to those who are speaking on the web, and get out of the way.
