I just watched this documentary on Ai Weiwei. What an amazing artist...and ballsy! It is inspiring to see him use art to communicate his concern against China's human rights policies (or lack there of). I don't know if I would ever be as courageous to go up against something so big. I think I'd die if I had to live in a world where you had to censor yourself...cause as you know, a lot of shit always comes out of my mouth.
It was also refreshing to see the power of twitter and other social media used as a weapon to spread free speech and record the truth rather than nonsense celebrity news. It was like watching him in combat, guerrilla warfare style...always one step ahead of the big guys.
