Students reproduce Davide Dormino's famous statue, "Anything to say?": Julian Assange, Edward Snowden and Chelsea Manning standing on three chairs in protest, like the students in Peter Weir's film "Dead Poet’s Society" with Robin Williams. Assange, Snowden and Manning denounced the lies perpetrated to sell wars and other the lies of the Powers That Be. In the installation enacted at Sapienza University of Rome, however, three students played the part of the three TruthTellers, while a fourth student climbed onto the empty chair to denounce instead the persecution of Julian Assange (and, by implication, of Snowden and of Manning). The video is by Davide Dormino, the sculptor who created the bronze statue, which travels across the world to celebrate the courage of truth telling.
