11:36 pm
fulford quite neatly into a modern music video, tao. this is the story all about how my life got turned upside down, though i'd like to take a minute and in any event, 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 broke patrick his victory and the dust ifc games. such a clear and concise representation of the russian writers work is rare. thinker not to do it 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 in the head . 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. dangerous go in the car was interesting. i guess i felt that i, i looked the part towards the end of my senior year. and you know,
11:37 pm
i just said like long back in my house i dreamt the belt heal it. when i woke up, did was in my room, kill it. phoebe dialogue 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 awhile, but a great 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 it does. yes.
11:38 pm
dan's very unique, very, it felt really special like something like that doesn't happen regularly, like 35 people who are all young but also interested in does they have ski sick or with wicked men and dogs. tar show ties. my body hurts. that's how notes from on the ground. one of dostoevsky major works begins. it was published in saint petersburg, in 1864 and re bone in the 21st century. on the other side of the ocean, an experimental theatre group from philadelphia carried. dostoevsky is leading character and the scenery to a ghetto in the western outskirts of the oldest city in the us. single story,
11:39 pm
america, small houses, 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 insane, but i was not deemed worthy even of that. this quote comes out burly. that drives this character, the underground man, based on dostoevsky. odds, carrots, in this online play. the lead character was not a retired government official from st. petersburg as dusty if he wrote, but a black police officer whose wealth too long for a system steeped in violence and racism, was a wicked man when i was on the phone, i was like in the system. and now i'm
11:40 pm
living all my life in my corner on the internet, torturing myself with these spiteful futile 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 sir. it's allison black men of the 21st century must either sit down or shut down. the image of a small, resentful and oppressed man, it 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 of being in isolation due to cov, it in a reflect the time that we're going through. and that's kind of the cool thing
11:41 pm
about this 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 u. s. 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 age of protest. and one of the characters in a play lies i, who and the dusty ascii version is a prostitute. our version, she was an activist,
11:42 pm
and she lived around this neighborhood and he goes to check on her kids and see the things that i woke me up to that prison in assistant figs. i had chosen to ignore the sneaky belie, be abuse. told me the horrible things were moved became a song in the side of us authorities, black hippies who rejected the system regularly disrupted local government 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. tier desk canadas dizzy shows. kind of strange echo to day riding with was fire. everywhere is still still the sound of
11:43 pm
bullets. 4 hours later $61.00 houses will be december. everyone in the house is dave. mm. well, we are walking to, ah, the sight of the move bombing. so this is where the house actually sat. i was young, i was young at that time, but not to remember hearing about just wanted news and how it affected me. and how it still bothers me today because it didn't have to happen. what is america? our carts is more sober hero as opposed to go staff ski character. ah, but it's the human struggled. i could really identify with that struggle. i mean
11:44 pm
both pieces are kind of a protest. he's like, dostoevsky was kind of commenting on the russia of his time and with our piece for commenting on the philly in the united states of our time, which i mean human nature never changes with new emotions, medieval institutions. and then i go to like technology and the combination of the street very you could say historically distinct seeks sixties with a psycho physical makeup. i have rendered us pretty dangerous to ourselves too,
11:45 pm
11:46 pm
ocean christopher. yet are still navi, please, just here. softer sheets. yeah. for darcy. ah, it was no accident when eliza lena, students from north carolina, read a specific passage from dostoevsky demons. the 200000 adversary of the great writers birth coincides with another milestone. 150 years ago while traveling. he was finishing one of his least known, but perhaps most significant works. and i think with this book in particular, i found it very rewarding to read in the sense that i can find any reflections within myself and within real life to day. clicking on the essay, the younger generation is kind of always hating on the older generation for being wrong and better about it. and that older generations kind of always looking down upon that these novel ideas with a lot of kind of like fear that there, you know, tradition traditions are gonna be upgraded. so i think just like all these rooms
11:47 pm
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, the 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, but also as one of the world's leading centers for the study of russian literature
11:48 pm
. is peter a revolutionary? is he a socialist? right, he does have political goals as you're saying, right? he wants manipulate several again, he wants to destroy things. he hates old forms. like god confessed karmazin alvin. he doesn't really want to create anything new except just to store 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, read me. read me again, read me with your students and not. and then we'll have
11:49 pm
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 that 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 for souls and caution ourselves. think it gets what the stay of ski wants to tell us. he always says, all of his character, set stuff, rogan or pewter, step on sodom for sonya and crime and punishment. beg forgiveness. that's what you have to do. you can be saved, you can better yourself,
11:50 pm
you can be improved there. one way to think about that is the death penalty. ah, we execute people because we think that they're not worth keeping alive anymore. regardless of the fact that it's more expensive than 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 dust. i ask you 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 to stay. ascii was a witness to that. himself. it does ask. he is not the guide to make you sit silent because 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 books so much like therapy therapy session that
11:51 pm
was written 200 years ago when and the language you don't, don't understand in a culture that you've never met. yeah, well, i'm believe professor carol, apollonia maintains, it doesn't matter if you read dusty excuse books in the original language or at translation. he is relatable anywhere in the world in any language. perhaps that's why dostoevsky is the most translated. russian author, translation is actually not something that takes away from the original work. it's 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 or a scone the cuffs dream in the crime and punishment. epilogue, what dostoevsky wrote back in the seems century isn't just relevant today. it's more like a prophecy. ah, you more good he is, alyssa belizean, you would to vis mira so young vizier wilcock worked as thrush really nicely
11:52 pm
friendly in the v than they more avoid? yes, yes it do. she's go bingley as in a rural? yeah, those anybody plugin or chrome? ian yucca thought of this monumental give ease, but in the rascal nickos 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. there's 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. and the idea that his writing is, is sort of writing of extremes on edges and his for him, the theme of apocalypse, the point at which you know,
11:53 pm
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, novels like chinese characters, can seem indecipherable to europeans, but the great author's popularity here is clear. his novels are published and republished almost every year, and many have multiple translations. was this johan, the tisha? hi, sure. it will deliver the file for you full since it's since english hoping push a fit home. you should just replace it with metallic back then say 20 ounce our sense. oh the dies you're driving. yeah. sure. hope the otisha dosher or sheila get
11:54 pm
help on the top. so it since and immune by the off how they sure they all chance i was she shook i don't, i was your full a daughter timley among cloth, ocean and all offers will go on. you should go down and show credits shoshone nominee that, that appeared roacher sean, on the, on your social, with your gentlemen here to utah mulash. what is your 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 $200.00 anniversary of the writers 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. oh wow. wow. wow. everyone's heard just i guess. even if they haven't actually read him,
11:55 pm
many chinese admit that the russian classical writers, dark 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 yeah. yeah. like i like for me as well as oh yeah. yeah, jobs. sure. yes i yeah. how can i go no sound. hello. okay. turn down the years with hi again. so wasn't say, yeah, do you have a question? mm roscoe. nicole hat sonia mom, a lot of us shall all michigan's coat just a ascii, renowned dandy and follower of fashion who used the best st. petersburg taylors paid close attention to his heroes clothing in billing at the special meaning for
11:56 pm
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. walt and where to draw on dostoevsky is an individual decision. ah, go street. it's named after dusty ascii once had a different name. no, via bush a duncan, 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. but one small museum commemorating the writer became a huge exhibition for the big 2 hundreds anniversary you mercy. with 3 flaws of personal belongings, manuscripts and video installations. dostoevsky moved from here to st. petersburg.
11:57 pm
whole life 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 excuse welled. we're all his heroes, all over the world. ah ah . oh, are the past 2 and a half years, russia. nato agreed on very little. if anything, however, both agreed to meet for a high level meeting and they did in brussels. both sides made their case. nothing was really resolved lots of words. what happens next?
11:58 pm
maybe action waller officers are facing it 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 and 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 people. i see 1st thing an agency elder a me because it again a feeling that hey, you have to deal with our practice who you putting in a uniform cover bands. if a profit from tab is like money in play tricks and people mind, they think they go bad. know is the walk is out the door very bad. johns are coming . good news. you have job security because the world desperately need, but you have a good one
11:59 pm

12:00 am
ah ah, his royal highness, no law. queen elizabeth, 2nd son, prince. andrew is stripped of his military title and royal charities and made a high profile sexual abuse case. the u. s. supreme court votes to block jo biden's cove vaccine mandates, large businesses saying that it exceeds his power. so that hasn't stopped him from urging enterprises to implement the policy anyway. so american shops are struggling to fill the shelves. so the u. s. president insist supply chain issues have long been solved. we visit some grocery store to try to look for ourselves. so i'm introducing downtown, washing.
