A member of Pussy Riot, the Russian feminist protest art collective formed in 2011, Nadya Tolokonnikova was reportedly accused by Moscow of “insulting the religious feelings of believers”. She has recently spent much of her time focused on the conflict in Ukraine, raising nearly $7m for Ukrainian war efforts through her cryptocurrency UkraineDAO.

Yeah no shit, her and everyone she associates with. I can't imagine the bravery it takes to stand up to an institution that either throws their detractors in prison or out a window. I truly hope she stays as safe as she humanly can in this fight.
