In episode #8 of Roots of Humanity, Drew and Natasha Kurnaeva, a 22 year old vlogger from the Far East of Russia, unpack their thoughts about the war in Ukraine, which started only one week after they filmed a Siberian adventure together, a story that ended with Drew’s detention on the North Korean border. Natasha boldly reveals how she knew as a child that her government was unlike those in other countries, and how fake news in Russia is defined so loosely that it can often mean the truth. From oil production to snowboarding, Soviet architecture to Brittney Griner, Natasha tells Drew why she’s decided to move to Georgia amidst the war, processing her emotions of fear, hope, and anger at the world’s indifference, against the backdrop of her Ukrainian sisters’ suffering and the economic devastation in Moscow versus that in the isolated Far East.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
