4:34 pm
i don't know if i called a trophy. i think we all got on to when a so i guess that does make it a tricky patrick weiss is holding a figurine, a prize. he won at the annual dostoevsky games a contest for students from the leading universities in north carolina, which is among the main centers in the you asked for study in gusting epsky. it was my last semester of college and i took a, a dostoevsky class and the idea was just to, you know, read a few of those to our skis worse. but somehow they got so carried away by dusty epsky that his novels were given. new modern interpretations wrap allusions and video all inspired by his novels, crime and punishment might be his most popular, even mainstream, novel, murder, money lending, blood, and redemption, full fit quite neatly into
4:35 pm
a modern music video. now this is the story all about how my life got flipped turned upside down, though i'd like to take a minute and, and any of it, i'll tell you how i did a crime and how i got punishment. this video was literally made in a day with help from friends on the campus, but it brought patrick his victory in the dostoevsky. games such a clear and concise representation of the russian writers work is rare. thinker not to do and in my little says school and writing some stuff. when i dropped out of school then i got an idea and i thought it was good. i should kill a lady in my neighborhood. i grabbed one little accent hitter straight ahead. next thing i know she had her sister a both i and i was just trying to make a fine, approachable version of the novel dara skolnik. av was interesting. i guess i felt that i, i looked the part towards the end of my senior year. busy and you know, i just said lifelong back in my house, i rent the bell hill and when i woke up,
4:36 pm
it was in my room till it 50 gallon did the guy that i sort of work together. and it was a lot of fun and we sort of just like did it didn't 2nd guess ourselves too much. and when i actually shared at the dust ascii games, it was, i was very embarrassed. i could hardly watch it myself. but now when i looked back at it, i think it's awesome. i was just thinking, i haven't thought about her punishment for a while, but a grade book. i just re read it and you should check it out again. and also just being able to read it at a slower pace. why didn't he pretty much held on to the idea that he did it till like test his theory, you know? and because he thought he might be like an extraordinary man that does yes, dan's very unique, very,
4:37 pm
it felt really special like something like that doesn't happen regularly, like 35 people who are all young but also interested in just a epsky with wicked wreck. i'm not tired. so tired of my body hurts. that's how notes from under ground. one of dostoevsky, major lex begins. it was published in saint petersburg in 18. 64 and re bone in the 21st century on the other side of the ocean. an experimental theatre group from philadelphia carried dostoevsky leading character and the scenery to a ghetto in the west and outskirts of the oldest city in the u. s. single story america. small houses,
4:38 pm
countless anonymous streets and alleys resembling the yellow st. petersburg. dostoevsky portrayed in his novels, one of the quotes that really stuck out to me that i really identify with. i would now like to tell you, gentlemen, whether you do or do not wish to hear, why i have never managed to become even an insect. i tell you solomon that i wanted many times to become an answer, but i was not deemed worthy. even of that. this call comes out brawling. that drives this character, the underground man, based on dostoevsky and scared in this online play. the lead character is not a retired government official from st. petersburg as dusty ascii wrote, but a black police officer who's worked too long for a system steeped in violence and racism. oh ma'am, when i was on the phone last night legit and it made me sick.
4:39 pm
and now i'm living all my life in my corner on the internet, taunting myself with the spray for future oh, constellations that is even possible for an intelligent black men to become anything in this city. in this country. holy food, he come anything in a system built? oh yes. it's allison black man of the 21st century. must either sit down or shut down. the image of a small, resentful and oppressed man in notes from underground has become particularly relevant to a new generation of black people fighting for their rights. the concept of a hero isolated from the outside world and fighting an internal battle came in the wake of the pandemic. we wanted to do a whole season of shows around isolation to match our out moment or being in isolation due to co, had to reflect the time that we're going through an f. the cool thing about this
4:40 pm
adaptation is just overlaying those different given circumstances of like, okay, no more 19th century, 21st century. i was like, oh wow, this is really easy to recontextualize because yeah, they and they talk about politics. how like a man's perspective and how he treats a woman with the story was inspired by events here in philadelphia. in may. 1995 usaa authorities destroyed a whole block with explosives while storming activists from move the fringe group that advocated living with nature. the post technology and medicines and campaigned against animal abuse. the events of 1985 in philly drove our character into hiding. and then he resurfaced had this new, ah, age of protest. and one of the characters in the play lies i, who and the dust. a ascii version is a prostitute in our version. she was a, an activist. and she lived around this neighbourhood and he goes to check on her
4:41 pm
kid unseeded things up as a woke me up to a deaf person in assistant figs. i had chosen to ignore the sneaky belie the abuse. totally horrible things to move became a song in the side of us authorities, black hippies who rejected the system regularly disrupted local governments proceedings, gave shelter to drug addict and eventually started taking up arms. it was finally decided that the group had to be dealt with for good. the operation to evict move ended in tragedy. a residential area was bombed and the resulting fire destroyed dozens of houses. mm tear gas canisters, it shows kind of strange echo today. i was fire everywhere is still i build the sound of
4:42 pm
bullets for i was late. 61 houses will be dissipated. everyone in the house did. mm. well, we are walking to the site of the move bombing. so this is where the house actually sat, 2 was young, i was young at that time, but the doctor remember hearing about his 100 and how it affected me. and how it still bothers me today. because it didn't have to happen. what is america? ah, our characters is more so but hero as opposed to dos, the ascii character. but it's the human struggle i can really identify with that
4:43 pm
struggle. i mean, both pieces are kind of approach as piece like just a epsky was for kind of commenting on the russia of his time and right with our piece for commenting on the family in the united states of our time. like, i mean, human nature never changes. ah oh, when i was so wrong when i just don't a whole new world. yes. to say about. this being becomes the advocate and engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves will the part we choose to look for common ground
4:44 pm
while our officers are facing in increasingly dangerous environments, we are seeing a growing debate about so called warrior cops. the term that i've heard in the militarization of police. this is an app vehicle, the flyer to the 1033 program, very free program with the government program that follows military property that is no longer use to local law enforcement with building an army over here. and i can't believe the people. i see 1st thing an agency elder with again a feeling that hey, you have to deal with your higher practice. who you putting in the uniform of the beds is a powerful thing. and sometimes is like money in play tricks and people mind they think they go bad knows wolf is out the door. very bad. johns are coming. good news . you have job security because the world desperately needs that you have a good one
4:45 pm
. that makes no sense. you know, born is a case and you as a merge, we don't have a charity, we don't the vaccine, the whole world needs to take action and to be ready. people are judgment, common crisis with we can do better, we should be better. everyone is contributing each in their own way, but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever. the challenge is going to response has been massive. so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we are in it together with yes, leash was nice, yet only cheer less, sam. have blogger in yet?
4:46 pm
yeah. get a letter. see you just read over you. your bravo. snobby. yeah. get over. jelly. okay christopher. you're still navea. precious. thea, softer sheets. yeah, i see. it was no accident. when elisa lena students from north carolina read a specific passage from dostoevsky, demons. the 200 then adversary of the great writers both coincides with another milestone. 150 years ago while travelling, he was finishing one of his least known, but perhaps most significant works. and i think within this book in particular, i found it very rewarding to read. in the sense that i can find any reflections within myself and was in real life today, clicking on the essay, the younger generation is kind of always hating on the older generation for being wrong and better about it. my older generations kind of always looking down upon that he's not like diaz with a lot of kind of like fear that there, you know,
4:47 pm
tradition traditions are gonna be upgraded. so i think just like all these rooms are very apparent throughout time, i don't imagine they'll ever stop being renovated and there was, have been relevant. dostoevsky conceived demons as a small pamphlet. critical of the near lists and radicals of the day, a new generation that rejected the established social order, but he ended up writing quite a weighty tube. a political thriller, satirical pulp, fiction, religious drama, and existential tragedy. all in one how this reading felt for you between tuesday and thursday. are you getting more engaged in the novel? are you carrying more about these characters now than you were before? the plot of demons is discussed at workshops among students at duke university. one of the most prestigious in the united states, almost a contemporary of dusty ascii himself. duke university was founded in 1838. it's known to day, not just for teaching medicine, law and business,
4:48 pm
but also as one of the world's leading centers for the study of russian literature . is peter a revolutionary? is he a socialist? right, he does have political goals as you're saying writing was manipulate. several again, he wants to destroy things. he hates old forms, like god confessed karmazin orvin. he doesn't really want to create anything new except just to square everything puts the rogue and and talk professor carol apollonia of duke university is a renowned american expert on russian literature who's published many books and research papers. despite her broad knowledge of the subject, she admits that she re discovers dostoevsky every time she reads his work. when i teach these books that move me so much, i read them again with my students almost every time. every time i teach, i think, well maybe i should stop reading the book again and instead of read more about the book, just ask it always draws me back and he says, no, he says,
4:49 pm
read me. read me again, read me with your students and not. and then we'll have a real conversation every time i read, i'm learning new things. dusty ask is work written in the 19th century is now reinterpreted by her students. perhaps surprisingly, while reading demons, for example, they don't only see mountain life parallels, but also associations with certain politicians go. there is trump, for sure we will, is trying to change his mind is trying to consider his opinions based on what this person is said. i think what this these books have for us is this kind of a tire of timeless warning to think about what we're doing to ourselves to our environment, tor souls. the caution ourselves. think that's what the stay of ski wants to tell us. he always says, all of his character, say stuff, rogan or piano step on sada bird. sonya and crime and punishment beg forgiveness.
4:50 pm
that's what you have to do. you can be saved, you can better yourself. you can be improved in one way to think about that is the death penalty. i execute people because we think that they're not worth keeping alive anymore. regardless of the fact that it's more expensive in our system to execute someone that is to keep them alive. we do this because we think people are either undeserving or incapable of rehabilitation. they've done something bad and now they can be thrown away like human trash. and dostoevsky says, that's not true. even the murderer rascally cough can be sent away to prison. he can read his bible, he can be saved by sonya and he can be better. dostoevsky was a witness to that. himself. does i ask, is not the guy to make you sit silent. he is, he's the guy who will bring out your opinion even in just using his text to always reveal who you are and what you believe is such a useful exercise. you know, i felt that i learned a lot about myself in reading his book so much like therapy. because your therapy
4:51 pm
session that was written 200 years ago when a language you don't don't understand in a culture that you've never met her unbelief. professor carol, apollonia maintains it doesn't matter if you read dostoevsky books in the original language or translation, he is relatable anywhere in the world in any language. perhaps that's why dusty ascii is the most translated. russian author. translation is actually not something that takes away from the original work is quite the opposite. the translation is something that actually increases the power of a work of literature expands its range around the world. but there's one particular passage that professor apollonia prefers to read and russian. what a school in the cost dream in the crime and punishment epilogue. what dostoevsky wrote back in the century isn't just relevant today. it's more like a prophecy. ah,
4:52 pm
you more good. he is, alyssa belizean, you would to vis mira. so she's young. the shower to cook artist rationally, nicely friendly in the v than they more avoid? yes, yes. you do? she's grouping as in a rural. yeah, those anybody plugin or chrome? ian yucca thought of this monumental give ease, but in the rascal nika, is now in prison, up paying for his crime of murder. and he falls ill. and, and he has a dream. and his dream is a dream about these microscopic sort of but something like bacteria, these tree hiena that have affected the entire world. and when i, when i read this, i think about our pandemic, which is a disease. but it's also tied up with the, the other sort of divisions and stresses that are, that our world is suffering today just as he is really relevant today. the idea that his writing is, is sort of writing of extremes on edges and his for him. the theme of
4:53 pm
apocalypse, the point at which you know, the world is threatened with ultimate destruction. his message, i guess in his works about how people's intellectual concerns are divide them from each other. i think is absolutely relevant to the way our political world has been developing. recently. china, a country that's always had a unique culture with its own morality and customs. dostoevsky is novels like chinese characters can seem indecipherable to europeans. but the great authors, popularity here, is clear. his novels are published and republished almost every year, and many have multiple translations or this johan, the tissue. hi, sure. it will deliver the file per year for since it's since english hoping bush if it's home you should just replace it with metallic back then say 20 ounce our cent
4:54 pm
. oh the dice your dry yet. sure. hope the otisha dosher or sheila get up on the top. so it since and immune by the off how they sure they all chance again was since you got on your phone, latasha actually among co dash integral authors will go on. you should go down and show credit shoshone nominee that appeared roacher sean on the, on your social with your gentlemen here to utah, merle ashleigh dean, contra hunch. ha, nancy. in fact, it turns out that chinese people don't just know dostoevsky, but each of his characters too, by name, to celebrate the 200000 adversary of the right. his birthday. students from various chinese institutes got together and staged the brothers karamazov, the novel that rather encapsulates the writer's whole life. dostoevsky finished it just a few months before he died. oh yeah. we got, oh wow. wow. wow. everyone's heard just,
4:55 pm
i guess. even if they haven't actually read him, many chinese admit that the russian classical writers dock tones don't exactly resonate with their views of life. however, it turns out that even there you can find color or had some of your own. i says, yeah, that was your yellow bag now. like for me it was. oh yeah, yeah, joe. sure, yes i yeah. how can i go? no sound. hello. okay diane with how you doing so i'll just say yeah. do you have a clue, roscoe nicholas hat. sonia mom, a lot of us shall all michigan's coat just a ascii, a renowned dandy and follower of fashion, who used the best st. petersburg taylor's paid close attention to his heroes,

clothing, and billing at the special meaning for the 2 hundreds anniversary. a group of st. petersburg artists put on an interactive exhibition of illustrations, which is a bit like a coloring book. walton, where to draw on dostoevsky is an individual decision. ah, go street. it's named after dostoevsky once had a different name. no via bush dunker. fyodor dusty ascii was born here at the marine sky hospital in a wing for the poor, where he lived for almost 16 years. this is where he 1st imagined the heroes of his future novels. the one small museum commemorating the writer became a huge exhibition for the big 2 hundreds anniversary. the machine with 3 floors of personal belongings, manuscripts, and video installations. dostoevsky moved from here to st. petersburg. whole life
4:57 pm
lay ahead, forced labor temptation. the search for meaning only later will crime and punishment demons than the brothers karamazov come to light, but it all started here. 2 centuries later, we still live with the reality of dusty ascii as well. we are all his heroes, all over the world. ah ah. now we have eating reds, i just heard that it was a healthy alternative to cigarettes. do we trust tobacco companies with their message that these new products are actually going to reduce these sugars are making the tobacco with

4:59 pm
basically designed as techniques to break down the human mind. if you force a human being to stay in a certain position doesn't take very long to the pain involved to become absolutely excruciating. but nobody clean finger on you. you are doing it to yourself. we started adopting those techniques when i was station and multiple among them were stress positions, sleep deprivation. and usually hypothermia is already beginning to be evidence that these old techniques are now being used on immigrants and children, whatever you do or more comes from home. nobody has been held accountable for the torture that happened in the past. the moral authority that made america later sacrifice the shimmer of effective interrogation.
