On this episode, we speak to attorney David Remes, who represents a number of Yemenis imprisoned at the US military detention facility at Guantanamo Bay, about his clients and the larger political context surrounding Guantanamo. We also remember Ibrahim Mothana, a young Yemeni activist who continues to inspire his colleagues in Yemen and people around the world. 

Filmmaker and journalist Laura Poitras made the short film "Death of a Prisoner" for The New York Times in January 2013, on the death of one of David Remes' clients, Adnan Latif.

Yemeni blogger Noon Arabia also wrote about Ibrahim Mothana, and collected additional remembrances, for Global Voices Online.
