The world where cops got rid of homophobia, stopped the war on drugs and actually understood that it's much better to be joyful and nice to people.” Today also marks a victory in the court against their Russian government as the European Court of Human Rights condemned Russia for its harsh, humiliating and severe treatment of the Pussy Riot members after the 2012 protest in the Moscow cathedral. Policemen are dancing along the track that goes: "Cops are kissing under the clouds". We demand:

Some of Pussy Riot’s members’ identity was unfortunately and abruptly revealed after her arrest for performing 35 seconds of the Punk Prayer “Virgin Mary, Put Putin Away” in Moscow’s Savior’s Cathedral in 2012. Since then Pussy Riot’s worked on new music and video art, such as: “I Can’t Breathe”, their first English language song made in honor of Eric Garner, “Chaika” about Russia’s corrupt prosecutor general, “Make America Great Again” which was eerily created and shot before #45 was elected president, and “Police State” with a video starring Chloe Sevigny and released at the end of last year. Art is just a part of Pussy Riot’s mission. In 2014, since the release of two members from prison, they launched Mediazona, a free-of-censorship independent Russian media agency focusing on law enforcement issues like conditions in prisons and prosecutions of political activists. Activists of Pussy Riot are advocating for the prison reform in Russia and providing help and lawyers to prisoners. http://
