The group of 6 Americans, including Alive in Baghdad’s Brian Conley and artists James Powderly, that were detained in Beijjing last week have been released and were put on a plane home.

According to Students for a Free Tibet (SFT) - “James Powderly, Brian from Alive in Baghdad, and everyone else all arrive at LAX around 6 or 7pm tonight,” A group of Tibetan expatriates and pro-Tibet activists plan to greet them at the airport and welcome them home.”  This was released yesterday, so everyone should be safe and sound now.

This is good news, although it’s sad that the artists and documentarians didn’t get to voice their opinions. takepart to get involved with Students for a Free Tibet and watch an episode of Alive in Baghdad below:
