    "The moment you pick a larger force and you say that force is giving me freedom you are doing something which will take your own freedom away". - Prof. Timothy Snyder.

    Timothy Snyder is an absolute genius! To the point where you feel smarter just by listening to him 🤓

    Professor Snyder is incredibly eloquent and informative, and there is also a very simple phrase which is used often by Americans who are not so learned, but which seems to reflect some of the same ideas: Freedom isn't free.

    Always fascinating to hear Timothy Snyder speak. It's a shame he wasn't given more time. Also would have liked to hear questions from the audience.

    Great point about Zelenski addressing directly to the people of other nations as opposed to their leaders.

    Timothy Snyder has an awesome Ukrainian language. I didn’t even thought he can speak Ukrainian. Great!

    It blew me away when I saw that the Conference was held IN Kyiv, Ukraine!

    Great talk! It blows my mind to see those people sitting in Kyiv, capital of a country waging war on its territory.

    A great discussion. We are living at a time when awareness of history is especially important. None of what is going on would be understandable without that awareness. How lucky we are that at such a time we have such a diverse group who really know their stuff, and speak about it publicly.

    This is brilliant. I am so grateful to have discovered it. These are essential perspectives, quite neglected in most conversations

    If this panel had also included Stephen Kotkin, it would pretty much have been the dream team.
