A Global Day of Solidarity will take place in London’s Leicester Square next week as writers from around the world join together to show support for striking scribes in the U.S.
The Writers Guild of Great Britain, International Affiliation of Writers Guilds and Federation of Screenwriters in Europe are joining together on Wednesday 14 June and have called on writers from across the globe to join.
The protest will kick off at the William Shakespeare statue in London’s Leicester Square at 1 p.m. GMT (5 a.m. PT) and writers are being urged to bring placards.
