Yusupova: Russia needs feminist thought to be constructed locally - not adopt and translate foreign concepts #euroiccees #basees

[Crossing the Baltic @CrossingBaltic]

Yusupova: Reason for Pussy Riot's failure in Russia might be that they didnt't opt for a Russian name #basees #euroiccees

[Crossing the Baltic @CrossingBaltic]

Yusupova: translated feminism is problematic - Russian feminist literature in translation bears a different meaning #euroiccees #basees

[Crossing the Baltic @CrossingBaltic]

Yusupova: Why don't Russian feminists support Pussy Riot? Why do Russian women not wake up? #euroiccees #basees

[Crossing the Baltic @CrossingBaltic]

Yusupova on the different readings of Pussy Riot in Russia and the West. Why are they so different? #euroiccees #basees
