We are a national nonprofit created by Russian-speaking Americans and their friends and allies who participated in the rallies of solidarity with Russia's movement for fair vote and democratic change that took place since December 2011 in New York, Washington, San Francisco, Chicago, Kansas City, Los Angeles, and Boston. We aim to raise public awareness in America about the struggle for civil and human rights in Russia and other countries of the former Soviet Union in past and present, as well as about the Russian-speaking American community, its culture, interests, and needs.
