What We Must Learn

What We Must Learn

Felix Gmelin and Christoph Draeger, NEWSbody, Bone Performance Festival, Bern (CH), Nov 29, 2019

Felix recites a short text from Bertold Brecht's Lehrstücke after Christoph handed the text to the audience and instructed them to speak it five times in a row, all together as a choir, following Felix's lead.

 

What we must learn above all is consent.

Many say yes, and yet there is no consent.

Many are not asked, and many

Consent to wrong things. Therefore:

What we must learn above all is consent.

 

—Bertolt Brecht (He Who Says Yes, He Who Says No)
