s2e18: We took the theme of our second season, building bridges with Ukrainian allies worldwide, and thought why not go more ambitious? That's how Volya Hub was founded. A sister Ukrainian Spaces project, it unites journalists, storytellers and scholars across former Russian colonies to expand public awareness about the crimes of Russian colonialism — in languages of the communities that are affected by it. We invited our friends and partners to chat about why we teamed up for Volya Hub and how personal it is for all of us. This episode features prominent Qazaq journalist Vyacheslav Abramov of Vlast, Georgian activist Nodar Rukhadze of Shame Movement and Ukrainian journalist Kateryna Sergatskova of Zaborona.
