DESCRIPTION:Feminist, political prisoner, mother, activist, artist, radical. Nadya 
 Tolokno is all of these, but she is best known as the founder of Pussy 
 Riot, an all-female protest group intent on drawing attention to human 
 rights violations in Vladimir Putin's Russia and throughout the 
 world.\n\nIn August 2012, Nadya was arrested following Pussy Riot's 
 anti-Putin performance known as "Punk Prayer" in Moscow's Cathedral of 
 Christ the Saviour. This protest, along with Nadya's subsequent two years 
 of imprisonment in a labor camp in Siberia, attracted vast international 
 attention, outcry, and support.\n\nSince her release, she has remained a 
 vocal advocate for worldwide social justice, speaking against corruption 
 and injustice through a wide variety of platforms from social media to 
 congressional addresses. Most recently, she produced and starred in three 
 new Pussy Riot music videos that portray the future of the USA under 
 President Trump.\n\nMoving forward after the 2016 election remains a 
 daunting task for many Americans. We find ourselves seeking role models for 
 inspiration to help refuel our resistance efforts, and Nadya Tolokno is 
 certainly one of them. Join us for an evening of conversation and advice on 
 how to triumph in the new political and social landscape.\n\n$25.\n
