Expanding the Fight Online
A look back at key highlights from 2023 Part One
2023 was a year of unprecedented support and collective action.
As we prepare for the new date for the public hearing on Tuesday and Wednesday, 20-21 February, here’s a look back at a year that saw a shift in public awareness surrounding my husband’s case.
For part one of our look back at 2023, here are some key highlights from my online campaign.
My Social Media following grew from:
Twitter (@stella_assange): 125k to 174k followers
Instagram (@stellaassange): 7.5k to 37k followers
Tiktok (@stellaassange): 0 to 13.5k followers
In an effort to find different ways to raise awareness and create community, we expanded my campaign.
We launched a podcast, “A Conversation with Stella Assange”, and a Youtube channel.
Watch the first episodes with Chris Hedges, a conversation in two parts below:
Or listen to it as a podcast on Spotify, Amazon Music and Deezer:
Look out for new episodes coming in 2024 with Craig Murray and Jeremy Corbyn.
We launched the Sunday Concerts for Assange YouTube series.

And we launched the Free Assange Emergency Toolkit and revamped it.
Check out the new Toolkit here.
The Free Assange Emergency Toolkit is now part of my new website, www.StellaAssange.com.
It provides social media graphics and suggestions to make it easy to help us spread awareness as well as information on how to connect with your fellow supporter and any logistical details you need to show up to key protests.
We need as many people as possible to gather outside the Royal Courts of Justice in London on the Tuesday and Wednesday 20-21 February 2024. It will be constantly updated with new ways you can help so please keep checking back for tangible actions.
And, finally, we relaunched my Substack!
Thank you so much to my subscribers new and old.
I truly believe that every protest brings Julian one step closer to freedom. Julian will be free if we work together to make it a reality. Thank you for joining me on this fight to free my husband.
Look out for Part Two of key highlights from 2023 where we showcase the inspiring and tireless hard work from Free Assange activists from all over the world.
May 2024 bring peace, prosperity and freedom to Julian and to all the suffering people of the world.
I’m so frustrated by the Australian government’s failure to achieve Julian’s release. It’s all words and no action. But we’re keeping the pressure up on them here in Canberra. And our organisation The Alliance Against Political Prosecutions are planning rallies outside the British High Commission and US Embassy on the 20/21 February. It’s important to keep building widespread support so that our government knows it’s political suicide for them if Julian is extradited. I don’t know how you keep going, Stella - all strength to you and your family.
Free Julian Assange
