Anita McKone & Robert Burrowes live in Australia and are the founders of the worldwide nonviolent resistance movement „We Are Human, We Are Free“ which aims to free humans from elite control, to resist forces of fear and dehumanisation and to unite people who want to build a better world in love, freedom and self-determination. Anita has been a nonviolent activist, educator and researcher since 1993. She has written many articles on different aspects of nonviolent activism, psychology and philosophy and has been imprisoned on a number of occasions for her activism. Robert has done extensive research on human violence, the strategy of nonviolent campaigns and liberation struggles since 1966. He has been a geopolitical analyst since 1971 and since 1981 a nonviolent activist and educator. For his nonviolent acts of conscience he has been arrested for about 30 times.

I started painting them at the boardwalk of the beach in Dieppe, France, and finished in London at River Thames, U.K.

Yesterday, on August 5, 2023, a big demonstration took place in Berlin for world peace and investigation of all crimes due to Corona measures. Speeches were held at the Brandenburg Gate and afterwards about 4.700 people marched peacefully through the city.
Although the organizers emphasized loud and clear that extremism and inhuman ideas (anti-Semitism, racism, discrimination) will not be tolerated at the demonstration, the mainstream media continues to ignore this in their reporting.
Here are a few impressions, at the end the whole peace parade in fast motion.

This article is a fantastic summary of the Nazi past (present), everybody should read. Below I share the German translation from Dr. Uwe Alschner.

Wer glaubt, jene, die das Regierungshandeln in D, A, CH und andernorts kritisieren, seien mit den #Nazis im Bunde, möge diesen Beitrag von #DavidAHughes aus #PropagandaInFocus lesen. Wer das nicht glaubt, besser auch. Denn es gibt Kontinuität. Aber anders

After our performance in London, Pedro fell off the roof of the camper van while loading the pictures and broke his hip and wrist. He left the hospital just two days after the operation and after a few days he is already walking carefully on crutches. I asked him why he doesn't want to give up the project and if he thinks it makes any sense. Thank you Pedro for your positive power, your calmness, will and confidence to make the world of tomorrow more beautiful.☀️

Brussels was a big challenge for us managing the Performance for Peace. But we succeeded, pics coming soon! ☀️

We left Brussels and went to Den Haag to rest and edit the material, but then discovered, we are in a town with a peace palace! We cannot leave that uncommented. So for now - a little postcard from Brussels from us with love 💓

Another real hero. Dr. Heinrich Habig. He will join my gallery soon.

Dr. Heinrich #Habig did no harm to anyone - but got two years and ten month in jail. His Lawyer, Wilfried Schmitz, speaks about one of the most important cases for Medical Freedom. Once again, in Germany ... #NeverAgainIsNowGlobal

Performance for Peace, Brussels, August 2023, 1st attempt:

We tried to get in touch with Peace & Freedom "fighters" in Brussels but the only contact we had was not too enthusiastic to promote our project. Pedro's health was still bad and I was scared to do it all by myself, it seemed unimaginable to me. I was frustrated and disappointed. Brussels, the snake's head was at my feet and I couldn't make a statement. Then I decided to conquer fear, took the paintings off the roof, repaired them, took pics and called a taxi for the next day. When the driver demanded double the price negotiated by email, I asked him to unload everything again. We left the city and drove into the countryside. Our dog drank water from the river and got sick, I had to call a vet. Locals then explained to me that the nearby pharma company GlaxoSmithKline was polluting the water. I realized that I had to lower my expectations and adapt to the circumstances. So I decided to find a creative way and we drove back to Brussels.
