Those of you who may know me well know that - for whatever reason - the nation of Estonia keeps winding its way in and out of life. Recently, Kadri told me about this amazing event, the Singing Revolution. Part of my fascination with Estonia is the way it was occupied by the Soviets, and my general fascination with Soviet era and communism. Having visited Cuba and gotten a taste of it firsthand, I find fascism repugnant but also incredibly fascinating. I'm also a big fan of meditation and non-violent communication. So what better than the story of a nation - successfully - throwing off the yoke of fascism via entirely non-violent means.
