“If I stop showing up, I feel like I’m betraying everyone else still standing there and sitting in the jail.”– A personal communication with a protestor, Tbilisi, March 2024
Thanks for this article! It is like a gulp of fresh air. I couldn't agree more with what is being conveyed here.
I happen to be a part of an attempt to establish one node of the kind of ecosystem advocated in the article. The name of this initiative is Georgian Public Assembly. If you have time for it, please do have a look at our website at www.geoasamblea.org
We'd be glad to have a chat with you. If you are interested, do not hesitate to get in touch either by email listed at the website, or via facebook: https://www.facebook.com/share/1AAWHNbuHr/
I agree with this, it is much needed as an idea & contribution. I think the challenge is to manifest this, to use a trendy word -- i.e. to make it real in a specific field, with targeted work, so that people see it happening. Rustaveli is filled, in a way, with Napoleonic discussions. We should be doing this, take Egypt, counter the Royal Navy, and so forth. I think what will make the approach come is if there are very focused efforts that illustrate that. (I have come across a few, but would be good if these scale.)

Of course it is ok. Thank you engagement!
