Interview: Ai Weiwei: 'The mood in Germany is like the 1930s'; The Guardian, December 9, 2018

Kate Connolly, The Guardian; Interview: Ai Weiwei: 'The mood in Germany is like the 1930s'

"Ai took his nine-year-old son with him on a recent trip to Bangladesh – about which he is making a film – just as he has to other investigations, such as to Mexico, to investigate the 43 students who disappeared in a single day in 2014.

“He’s been with me to visit most refugee camps I’ve been to, as well as the poorest ghettos in Mexico, and cartel areas, the island of Lesbos in Greece. I don’t want to teach him anything, but by being exposed to this kind of information he has developed a basic sensitivity of what’s right or wrong. And he sees me arguing a lot with people.”"
