You know, like, freedom and stuff

I'm not half as wise as the real Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, but I'll do my best to share her vision while she's in prison and off line.

I love the people at YarnBombing.ru! Their work is very public, yet they manage to get in a lot less trouble than, you know, me, for example.

Caring for the environment, whether it be built in the spring birdhouse or a cloth around the winter tree - an indicator of your ownership to the city's culture and environment.

We’re flattered, of course, that Madonna and Björk have offered to perform with us. But the only performances we’ll participate in are illegal ones. We refuse to perform as part of the capitalist system, at concerts where they sell tickets.

INTERVIEW: Pussy Riot's Katya Samutsevich

Freedom is only the first battle for Pussy Riots Yekaterina Samutsevich. The Russian punk pioneer, radical artist and gay rights campaigner is the only member of Pussy Riot on Russian soil who has her freedom, since three of the band were jailed a year ago.

New Interview with Katya!

Innokenty Grekov of Human Rights First. Speaking on the anniversary of the Pussy Riot verdict.

Even after Maria and I finally get out of prison, Putin's vendetta against us will continue. He has put our art on the "Federal List of Extremist Materials." With this sweeping blanket of censorship he is able to prevent Pussy Riot videos from being aired domestically, effectively creating an informational blockade between us and the Russian public.

The USA sentenced #BradleyManning to 35 years yesterday. That's even longer than South Africa kept #NelsonMandela in prison. IDK who is better off today, me, fake #Nadya, who is crying all day, or real Nadya in her prison cell who doesn't even know about it. Okay, I have a way easier deal. This is crazy! We got 2 years for political speech. Two years for daring to ask the Virgin Mary to deliver us from a #corruptPolitician. I thought our sentence was outrageous. But seeing a courageous person like Bradley Manning get 35 years, I suppose in some upside down #Kafka world we should be lucky we only got two years. "Home of the free" never meant less than it does today.
