Action in memory of
Anna Politkovskaya
October 7, 2017
Saint-Petersburg, Russia
'I often think: is Putin a human? Or an iron frozen statue? I think and can't find an answer that he is the person.'
Anna Politkovskaya "Putin's Russia"
'You may not have the appropriate education, experience, knowledge - only nepotism is in demand. And if you are pushed to the post, you must share what you get. Dining tables, beds, blankets ...'
Anna Politkovskaya "The Second Chechen"
'Give everyone the right to speak and write, and soon you will realize how much the freedom without coercion can do on earth.'
Sebastian Castellio
'Why I disliked Putin? I disliked him because of simplicity, which is worse than theft. Because of cynicism. Because of racism. Because of lying. Because of gas at 'Nord-Ost'. Because of the corpses of the innocent murdered accompanying his entire first term. Corpses that might not have been.'
Anna Politkovskaya
This is Elena Osipova, Saint-Petersburg's artist. She always takes part in such events and draws posters for them. Text of this one: 'The truth was killed, but it will live...'
Poster by Elena Osipova. Approximate translation of text: 'God with you! Be a sheep! Go in flock without a dream without a thought of their own, following Hitler or Stalin. Display of the bodies sprawled star or hooks of swastika.'
Marina Tsvetaeva
Anna Politkovskaya was killed on 7 October 2006.
