New Statue in Germany Illustrates How Much The Rest of the World Opposes US Secrecy

by Alexa Erickson

We go through life choosing to believe in the good. We trust, we protect, we communicate, and we love. But there are constant reminders lurking about in our world that show us how little we may know; how much information is withheld from us from political powers who wish to control how we treat our bodies, our bank accounts, and our planet.

Marianne Williamson, a spiritual activist, said it best when she said, “Love is what we are born with. Fear is what we learn. The spiritual journey is the unlearning of fear and prejudices and the acceptance of love back in our hearts. Love is the essential reality and our purpose on earth. To be consciously aware of it, to experience love in ourselves and others, is the meaning of life. Meaning does not lie in things. Meaning lies in us.”

To be reminded that we are given so little information, and instead brainwashed into believing certain things, is disheartening, even angering, which is why when activists take a stand for global freedom, it is  important to acknowledge and praise them.

In Berlin, Germany, three life-size bronze statues have been resurrected to commemorate three figures considered politically left heroes for their work in leaking US intelligence documents. The whistleblowers Chelsea Manning, Julian Assange, and Edward Snowden were represented through the artwork of Italian sculptor Davide Dormino.
