This event was organized by Stand with Assange NY and the Assange Defense Committee, and was held at the People's Forum in NYC on June 10, 2021.
From the Organizers: The Shiptons are arriving in the US from Australia to conduct a month-long country-wide speaking tour in their ongoing battle to save Julian's life.They will be in New York City for one day only. Please support their efforts and give them a hearty New York welcome.
Introductory remarks by Randy Credico, satirist and radio host, Chris Hedges, journalist and TV host, Aaron Mate, journalist at the Grayzone, and Roger Waters, composer, Pink Floyd co-founder and activist.Â
(There was another introductory speaker not mentioned in the orgaizers' blurb: Jocelyn Gay, of Haiti Liberte. Also, the moderator was Patricia Dahl, of Stand with Assange NY, and her intro was a speech in and of itself.)

There are 4 versions of this event on the R4A server. All versions are the full event minus introductory housekeeping remarks and the Q&A (Run time 01:24:18), lightly edited for pacing and content, mostly removal of "um, uh, you know" and false starts. I didn't add my own intro/outro to any version:
Version 1: A -24 LUFS Mp3 optimized for RADIO PLAY. Includes potentially offensive words.
Version 2: Same as Version 1, but with the potentially offensive words silenced ("Clean").
Version 3: A -19 LUFS Mp3 optimized for downloading onto a computer or mobile device for INDIVIDUAL USE. Identical content to Version 1, but a louder file encoded at a lower bitrate so it takes up less space. Includes the potentially offensive words.
Version 4:Â Same as Version 3, but with the potentially offensive words silenced ("Clean").
You can also download these files plus (much larger) .wav files for highest quality at this link: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AgR3-KWytgTzgvd68lIePewHcScL3w?e=GymXWw
Note to Radio Station Personnel - Please make note of this link: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AgR3-KWytgTzgZw_aOI2oDkhLhlrkw?e=fPuqpV You can use it to download all or part of the R4A Essential Dissent archive (in at least .wav format) via my OneDrive account, and I plan to continue to post new episodes to that account even if R4A at some point becomes non-functional.
