Description
Every Saturday, we revisit a story that’s in the news again. On Friday, Russian opposition leader Alexey Navalny died in an Arctic prison while serving 19 years behind bars. Today, we look back at his history.
This originally aired on March 26, 2021. None of the dates, titles, or other references from that time have been changed.
Alexey Navalny is a man with many titles: Russian dissident, opposition leader, activist, investigator, lawyer. Russian President Vladimir Putin reportedly refuses to say his name. But this larger-than-life persona leaves out a crucial part of Navalny’s past — his history of nationalism.
