Kara Kash, Bedre Chech

Crimean Tatarman blog

I like this blog. Our host is Kirim Tatar. There is much video content to peruse.
Stalin attempted to destroy Crimean Tatars forever.
Didn't work...
I recently read a biography of Stalin and it seems that his father would regularly beat the shit out of him. These formative lessons were not soon forgotten.
