CHAPTER

The Importance of Taking Care of Authoritarian Regimes

Woldumwigerwallencom: We need to act on every single authoritarian regime. The role of the artists and writers is to be taking care very well in that sense, because it's also can either fuel the authoritarian regime or either fuel the resistance,. So we need to be very conscious, consciously aware of what's going on. I would like for the conclusion to encourage pen members and supporters to promote the case list and journalists and writers to write about the cases mentioned in this report. By sharing their stories, you built a shield in your country against censorship, self-censorship and oppression even if it's not the case today.
