The Birth of Puzzy Riot

Summary

There are two momentous dates for the Russian Band "Pussy Riot'. One being Feb. 21, 2012 when they performed a controversial concert protesting Putin. The other is Dec. 23 when two members whom were jailed for their performances were released. The girls in earlier years pursued different ways to challenge the status quo. One idea was to kill the "militia" or "police" with kindness, through kisses. This was certainly an attempt to combat the mayor's feeling that "Russia does not need gays". Unfortunately russia had no history of cultural feminism, so the girls had to make it up.

When giving the opportunity to speak at a conference for Russian opposition groups, the girls took full advantage. They began by introducing various movements that had taken place in other, more progressive areas. In the 1920's the USSR actually began becoming more progressive in several aspects, but this was shut down in the 1930's.

In a major statement, the girls turned the song "Kill The Sexist" on, an example of "Pisya Riot". However, being a fictional group limited the ladies. So, the girls raised their sights to bigger objectives.
the girls took up instruments, and created costumes with a strong intentional message. The girls would publicly perform on top of metros, and other structures, which lead to the birth of "Pussy Riot".
