Contra spem spero - against all hope I hope.
It kind of blows my mind that this poem by Lesya Ukrainka is 130 years old but it's like it could have been written today.
Слава Україні! Борітеся - поборете 💙 💛

Listened to the second episode of Ukrainian Spaces. This one is even better than I hoped after the first one.
Subject of this episode is, broadly, feminism and decolonisation and the links between the two.
A lot of the conversation is about Lesia Ukrainka, late 19th - early 20th century Ukrainian poet and cultural hero.
Such a good episode.
