The world knows this unforgettable melody and sings it in numerous languages. “Shchedryk” (Carol of the Bells), inspired by a Ukrainian folk carol, became a global symbol of Christmas.
It was composed by Ukrainian Mykola Leontovych, born on this day in 1877.

Leontovych was a teacher, composer, and choir conductor who dedicated his life to recording and revitalising Ukrainian folk songs. 

His music carries a special kind of magic: no matter the language, the melody resonates with joy, hope, and the spirit of celebration. 

Leontovych was tragically killed in 1921 by Soviet secret police for defending Ukrainian culture. But his legacy lives on, and "Shchedryk" continues to unite people around the world.

По 5,5 лет тюрьмы дали сегодня журналистам Антонине Фаворской, Артёму Кригеру, Сергею Карелину и Константину Габову.
Отнятые 5,5 лет у каждого из этих молодых людей просто за то, что они честно делали свою работу.
Артем, Антонина, Константин и Сергей - политзаключенные, и должны быть немедленно освобождены.

This is a “dictator” according to Trump and Musk

Wow. Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde fearlessly calls out Trump and Vance to their faces. This is heroic.

Examining the Lex Fridman podcast is an excellent way to see how the posture of neutrality actually fails to adequately challenge falsehoods and toxic beliefs. https://t.co/8ZRnQL3p7o

Pursued relentlessly by the government of Vladimir Putin, the Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny died in prison. He left behind an account of his final years—and an admonition to his country and the world. https://t.co/PTMWuNuW1M
