Nathan: Hello and welcome to this week’s Story Update. Today, we’re going to be speaking with Micah Peterson, who we… we got like a story about three years ago. So before we speak to Micah, let’s take a look at his story.
Micah: Hi, my name is Micah Peterson and I’m from Phoenix, Arizona. So, when I was 21, I was in college at Oberlin up in Ohio, which is the middle of nowhere. I had an opportunity to study abroad in Tokyo, Japan. It was just a really – I was really excited to go because it was going to be a really great chance for me to break out of my boundaries and see a whole new world.
Wall Of Lies was first erected on 3 October 2020 in Grattan Street, Brooklyn. The art installation, by Tom Tenney and Phil Buehler, is a wall covered with 20,000 of the lies uttered by US President Donald Trump from the time he took office, up to January 2020. Not life imitating art, but lies made into art.
The
Wall was meant to stay up until the US election on 3 November, but was vandalised overnight on 7-8 October. It was defaced using spraypaint, with phrases like “Vote Trump or die” and “Stand back and Stand by”. This last phrase refers to Trump saying: “Proud Boys stand back and stand by”, when asked, during the first presidential debate on 29 September, if he would condemn white supremacist groups.
