Great Rider but sometimes there's just so many characters. The problem lies with me not with the writing but it is hard for me to keep track of all of it. I don't like to go back and reread things.
Pacifists really? Sorry CBC but your documentary is slanted.. The children went to the local school, played sports and chummed with the local kids. The situation was not handeled well. Taking children away from their family, very bad. However sending children to school was law and the Fredomite contention of the negative effects of schools inaccurate. I was living in New Denver and in school at that time. The matrons at the dormitory were the mothers of my friends. My now adult friends tell my the their mothers would bring the children home for birthday parties. These mothers were not cruel. We lived at a time with the wisdom spare the rod and spoil the child. Finally, in my opinion, the Sons of Freedom can also take responsibility for using their children to make a point and becoming terrorists. mi😅
this was fascinating …i’m an american woman but used to travel to canada as a young girl as i had family that lived in saskatoon….must say i was shocked at the news footage at the end that showed the women protesting in court in the nude….that is some courage if i’ve ever seen it. Does anymore footage exist? i’ve looked everywhere but there isn’t much out there. I would love to see more footage or pictures of these nude protests. I’m sure many of the women in particular were nervous but they exude so much body confidence. If there is any area for me to research this more i would appreciate if kindly! thanks for such amazing and interesting contributions
When you have no recourse for proof and walls are built to prevent you from seeing the truth then you only have your guts and intuition to go on. For me, my guts tell me this....It's been suggested that the Sons of Freedom and even Peter Verigin's own son were responsible, but Doukhobors do not kill. It is not in their nature at a core level. Verigin was eying a move to Oregon and taking the community there because of the troubles the Doukhobors were having with the government... There were KKK and other white Aryans who opposed this in Oregon ....I believe that it was they who bombed that train using elements of the RCMP or even a member of the force (because that is who police were back then and somewhat still are today). A convenient number of people were also threatening to Verigin which would make a viable cover for the true perpetrators. I believe this is what the investigation turned up and this might be the reason why the official investigation was kept quiet and hidden even after a half of a century has passed...It implicates the RCMP and because the RCMP are funded by the government of Canada, the government is implicated as well... Just a theory but my guts are all I got because can you really trust the police?
"War and Peace" is the greatest novel I have ever read. before read war and peace. I love "Dream of the Red Chamber" the most. Now War and Peace become No.1 in my mind. What a Greatest Tolstoy. admire him...... he is the greatest hero in the world. the hero never dies......Forever Tolstoy.
Leo Tolstoy hated the institutionalised form of education; guess what: Albert Einstein had the same thing to say about it. And it is definitely true that they from it.
as for me as Russian it was exciting and warming-heart documentary! Thank you for being interested in our culture! I hope someday there wouldn't be so much hate and misunderstanding to Russia and its livers, buy only interest and respectation. Keep on doing your job, you are absolutely adorable!!!
I am an Indian and have grown up reading Dostoyevsky, Tolstoy and Chekov. Hope to visit Russia one day. There is nothing like Russian literature in the world.
Beauty of Leo is his everlasting "young" unaltered perception of everything, every moment , feeling , emotion and beyond in all vivid colours of imagination , yours and mine where that his reality, depiction meets and melt in our hearts, minds but leaves a solid adorable impression akin to universal humanity if there is something of that sort one could describe it. We fall in love of our existence , its troubles and tribulations unwittingly or perhaps being one with. Thank you Larry , thank you very much 💪🖒
I think maybe he gave her the diaries before the marriage so she would know who he really was, who he was in his past. It might not be as dark as people think, maybe he did it so she would know truly who she was marrying. Maybe it weighed on his conscience to do that, he probably would have felt guilt if she did not know. A man is often guilty of his past for most of his life.
Tolstoy was Searching, and Searching. Searching never ends. There's always something to improve.
Yeah - "poochin" and the " Rooshans" don't understand Tolstoy. We need the Brits to explain. I commence viewing with interest.

Almost certainly the most valuable and informative film/video project about Doukhobors produced to date!

Who are the they in the theatre of war………………..
Fascinating, thanks for posting. Isn't there a second half somewhere? Can't find any sign of it on TH-cam.
Some of this reminds me of the Mennonite and Amish that I lived close to when living in Pennsylvania.

Quite simply the greatest author of all time. His unique ability to paint the everyday with just the right choice and arrangement of words
Tolstoy and Dostoevsky made a huge impression on me when I was a young man and I still read them regularly.
Wow! Amazing!
Leo Tolstoy hated the institutionalised form of education; guess what: Albert Einstein had the same thing to say about it. And it is definitely true that they from it.
Copyright problems, removed.
Magnificent! But where is Part 2?
Looking back, even way back, so much of human history is so very ugly.
Yes ,there must be a end to this…
Beautiful.
Thank you, Larry, for keeping the faith.
Where is part two?
What is the book the host is reading from?
Wow,,,,so good to see her. The last time I saw her was in 1962 when she and her husband visited with my grandparents..
UPLOAD THE PART 2 AGAIN PLEASE
Can someone please tell me what the railway worker said?
💕

Beautiful people!

Very informative and educative indeed.
Is the narrator reading from a single volume of Tolstoy's diaries? Anyone know what the specific title would be?
fantastic. One of the best Docs id ever witnessed

This is just fascinating! I never read Tolstoy but I sure am now. Thanks!
