This webinar is a conversation with young Georgians who have experienced and resisted authoritarian rule in their country. Focusing on the future, it aims to paint a picture of the constraints and opportunities they face today and to articulate a vision for a better tomorrow.
Semyon Khanin, one of Latvia’s most prominent Russian-language poets will appear together with Kevin M. F. Platt, who is among his longstanding translators into English. This bilingual reading will be followed by a Q&A and discussion with the poet and translator.
