Want to meet #Navalny? #AlexeiNavalny is in jail after being poisoned by #Putin but his brother/ally Oleg is under house arrest; his voice can reach the world. Join on May 17. Oleg is a dissident; wrote a memoir about being imprisoned. More in 🧵swarthmore.zoom.us/meeting/regist…
Oleg is under house arrest for participating in a protest against his brother’s incarceration following his return to Russia. In 2014, #Navalny brothers were convicted in a fraudulent case. Alexei’s sentence was suspended, Oleg spent 31/2years in prison labor camps...
...often in solitary confinement. This sentence was ruled “arbitrary and manifestly unreasonable” by the European Court of Human Rights and widely considered a political tactic to try to stem Alexei’s initiatives. His memory sheds light not only on his incarceration but also...
... on the corruption that led to his time there and the nature of the Russian justice and carceral systems.
A translated excerpt from the book will be shared, and Navalny will take questions from the audience. Share the word.
