Chelsea Manning<\/strong> changed the course of history when she released hundreds of thousands of government documents. Less than a year after being released from prison, she joined Vogue<\/em>‘s Sally Singer<\/strong> to discuss her new life, radical politics, and the consequences of unchecked state power, at the SXSW Conference<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n

“I am not afraid of being a former prisoner. I am not afraid of being a trans person. I am not afraid of being who I am and saying what I did happened. I am going to continue to do things, so it was really an act of defiance.”<\/em> – Chelsea Manning on joining social media after her release.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

In addition to readjusting to normalcy after her prison sentence, Manning has involved herself with a number of different projects. She has a documentary about her life in the works, she’s currently writing a book, and \u2014 most importantly \u2014 in January of this year she announced her candidacy for the U.S. Senate in Maryland.<\/p>\n

Roughly halfway through the conversation, Singer asked about the gathering of information and what advice Manning could offer to people to protect themselves. Manning responded with, “be self-aware of the information you are putting out there<\/strong>…being self-aware when you are revealing something about yourself and whenever it is no longer needed, being self-conscious enough to make it no longer available.”<\/p>\n
