Vision

Liberty Lexington is a 501(c)(3) organization staffed by Washington and Lee students dedicated to reporting human rights abuses in Eurasia and pursing justice for those victimized by regimes in the region. 

Mission

Working collectively to research and report crimes committed by governments in Eurasia, Liberty Lexington will seek to inform the W&L community of atrocities in areas of the world that are often overlooked. The news outlet will work to not only notify the community of these developments but also to provide information on how the community can help.
