What does it mean to be Russian

[Benjamin Rifkin]

Dear SEELANGers:

For those of us celebrating the 4th of July, Happy Independence Day.

On a day when many are engaged in thinking about patriotism and country in the American context, here is an interesting link from the NY Times about those ideas in the Russian context :

Which is part of a bigger project here:

http://patriotism.imrussia.org/

The bigger project has English and Russian versions, including audio files that will be of great interest to teachers.

Best wishes to all,

Ben Rifkin
