Siberian Voices – The Real Russia Beyond Moscow

Tuesday, March 23 | 7:30 – 8:30 PM CDT

Though Russia spans eleven time zones, American media coverage is almost without exception Moscow-centric. And yet, much of the hope for an emerging civil society can be found in the experiences and energy of people living far beyond the capitol. Join the Russian American Business and Culture Council and co-sponsors for a live interview with Siberian youth and community members about how they view their world and the opportunities and challenges they face.
