Vice taps Pussy Riot's Nadya Tolokonnikova for new column
by Vice

VICE has enlisted Pussy Riot's Nadya Tolokonnikova for a new bi-weekly column which promises to "keep a finger on the pulse of various injustices occurring in present-day Russia." The kickoff article reflects on the events immediately following Nadya's arrest last week in which she was "caught" sewing in public as part of her series of actions called "Don’t Be Afraid." Nadya also said this about the column:

We hope that in this very difficult time for activism, art and media in Russia, when our government is trying to alienate the country from the rest if the world, the collaboration between Pussy Riot and VICE will work towards moving Russia closer to the rest of the world.
