  1. Born on 25 February 1871, Ukrainian writer Lesya Ukrainka was a revolutionary who changed the course of Ukrainian literature. Throughout her literary career, she battled tuberculosis, patriarchal norms, and Russian censorship — emerging as one of Ukraine’s most influential writers.

    Becoming one of the loudest Ukrainian voices of the early XX century, she defied imperial control and paved the way for her nation’s independence and women’s rights, with her legacy so powerful that the Kremlin censored it long after her death.

    [LNGG_LAB](https://www.instagram.com/lngg_lab/?hl=en), in collaboration with Ukraїner, are diving into the life of this extraordinary woman whose impact still resonates today, forever transforming Ukrainian culture and Eastern European literature.
