Georgians support Salman Rushdie

In the previous post i have written about an activity of a Georgian youth. And really, that’s true, as it seems – they are becoming more and more actives, they involve in almost all action in our country. 

But now, I would like to tell you about how had supported the young Georgian poets and writers famous britain writer Salman Rushdie.
My  facebook-friend  shared a post with loud headline yesterday , wich had attracted my attention instantly. As i understood, in 1989 Muslim leader Khomeini issued Fatwa against Salman Rushdie and he was sentenced to death, but the muslim terrorists threaten rushdie with death just now and because of Rushdie could not come at the largest literary festival in Asia. The young writers from Georgia supported Salman Rushdie, they translated the petition text into georgian and proclaimed their users to join in for freedom of speech and for defence the well-known writer.
I'm glad the civil self-consciousness of georgians  is growing. I think, the civil responsability is not only defence your own citizen, but any citizens too.
If you can read in georgian, go to this link, this is art-portal, wich is made by young georgian poets and writers: like Paata Shamugia, Aleks Chigvinidze, Giorgi Khasaia, Shota Gagarini, etc.

Minifest as Manifest

I would like to tell you about one interesting story. It happened a few weeks ago. I'll start from beginning: so, the government of Tbilisi have sold Gudiashvili Square, wich is located in central part of Tbilisi. Investor's task was deconstruct this Square, wich is the cultural heritage site and instead develop restaurants, shops and so on. But the Georgian youth protested this fact and they organized a big rally, wich was titled "Minifest as Manifest" and the georgian musicians, poets and artists participated in. There came a lot of people, the protesters have sold books, old materials, near square it was sold alcohol and the georgian youth were very fun. This was peaceful rally and the protesters express, they care for their environment. Because of this rally the government of Tbilisi have stopped deconstruction of the Square so far.

I put some photo-materials about this rally, see:
