There are very few Belarusians who write for an English-speaking audience. What most people know about Belarus they learn mostly from those who don’t understand Belarus. I wrote this essay two years ago, and I hope it could be read by more people. Read it in the post below!

Comments from haters inspired me to reintroduce my work. Hi! I’m Darya! I write a newsletter about Eastern Europe, Ukraine, Belarus, and living in challenging times. Looking for people who support Ukraine and love culture, history, poems, and recipes! See post below!
The best advertisement for my essays and poems is comments like that from Russians.
Don’t let Russians tell our story daryazorka.substack.com/p/dont-let-rus…
I published an essay about how Ukrainians are being silenced, how Russians pretend to be victims, and how they twist whenever you say to fit their narrative — and Russians reply to it, accusing me of silencing their voices, pretending to be victims, and twisting my words. 🤷🏻♀️
If we are silenced, who will tell our story? Today, I published a new essay with raw words from my heart. Please read it in the post below.

To write this essay, I studied the works of the Greek historian Herodotus from the 5th century BCE and researched and translated dozens of articles and books by Ukrainian scholars. I’d be so glad if you read it!
