How women became the face of Russian anti-war movement

Two days after the war has started, Russian feminists created a
horizontal organization that has been in the forefront of
anti-war protest for over 4 months now. Thousands of activists in
112 cities across the country engage in underground forms of
resistance, organize help for the refugees and save those who
face political repressions. 


How women became the true face of the anti-war movement in
Russia? We’ll try to figure it out with Daria Serenko, Russian
feminist poet and activist.
