The Russian grandma who went to jail

Available for over a year

Natalya Filonova is a former kindergarten teacher, a mother, a grandmother. But she’s also an activist and in 2022 she was arrested during a demonstration against the war in Ukraine. Nina Nazarova from BBC Russian has been trying to find out what happened to her. Plus, how a homeless bumblebee brought a community together, with Joao Fellet from BBC Brasil; and a brief history of the 'black dandy style' celebrated at this week's Met Gala in New York, with World Service journalist Danai Nesta Kupemba.
