I grew up in an observant (devout?) Muslim household. When I questioned my faith, my folks didn't ban books. They encouraged me to read books by Muslims AND non-Muslims—Christian, Jewish, atheist, or other. It was life changing. And it's a message I'm passing on to my children now, and one I hope they pass to their children when the time comes.

Parents: Trust your kids. Ban ignorance—not books.

Today marks the Day of Remembrance for the Heroes of Kruty. This day is dedicated to the Ukrainian students who bravely sacrificed their lives to protect Kyiv from the Bolshevik offensive in 1918. We will never forget their courage and heroism. The heroes live on.

The European Court of Justice's recognition that Russia occupied Donetsk and Luhansk regions in May 2014 is an important decision for Ukraine. This decision means that Russia can no longer deny its presence in the region, and that courts in other countries may consider claims against Russia for human rights violations in the occupied territories.
