Larazon.es: "Who will do it?"

"On Wednesday, the play «Speak Truth To Power: Voces desde la Oscuridad», by Ariel Dorfman, premiered in Madrid, directed and adapted with great success by Jon Viar, director of the essential documentary «Traidores» (Traitors), which is based on his own experience as the son of a man linked to ETA who, after serving an 8-year sentence (until the 1977 Amnesty Law), gave up nationalism and his sympathy for the terrorist group.

"In Voces desde la oscuridad, the testimonies of human rights defenders — performed by nine students from the American University CIS of Madrid — are interwoven with the mockery of their oppressors, who repeat over and over that "nothing is ever going to change." A constant struggle for human rights." "Who cares about human rights? Supposedly, everyone. In reality, very few.
