  1. Apartment concerts — kvartyrnyks — in Ukraine are nothing new. They took place throughout the Soviet years, where Ukrainians could read poetry, sing songs, and freely discuss the government. Veronika Romanova and Mariana Lastovyria write for @timkmak’s Counteroffensive about what it’s like to attend the 2025 version. “The existence of kvartyrnyks demonstrates how Ukrainian culture persists despite constant adversity – whether under authoritarianism or in the face of open war against it,” they write.

  3. Selena Quintanilla was murdered 30 years ago, but that’s far from the most important part of her story. @TexasObserver’s Francesca D'Annunzio reviews a new documentary, “Selena y Los Dinos,” which stitches together old camcorder footage, archival interviews with Selena and new conversations with her family members. “As for the woman who murdered Selena in 1995, the film essentially ignores her altogether. The film’s exploration of the loss of Selena’s life focused on the family’s grief and the late singer’s legacy,” writes D’Annunzio.

  5. Russian bombs have destroyed many of Ukraine’s cities and in doing so, flattened Soviet-era buildings. @timkmak, Mariana Lastovyria and Artem Moskalenko write for The Counteroffensive about whether that might one day create opportunities for a new kind of city planning and building that’s more resilient and better for individuals and communities.
