ALICE MURLINA
HOME2020
(Saint Petersburg, Russia)
“[Some day] the sun will appear in our window, too”: this Belarusian proverb expressing hope for a better future is more relevant today than ever as the world experiences a crisis, a time of change, fear, and uncertainty. In the late 19th and early 20th century, the phrase was used as a slogan in underground Belarusian-language publications. It went on to become the name of the first legal Belarusian publishing group, which existed in Petrograd from 1906 to 1916.
