Dear friends, interested in Belarus and human rights.

Go to the following Web site to learn about the International PEN Poem
relay (related to this year's summer Olympic Games). You can read and
listen to the poem "June" in (Cyrillic) Belarusian.

Best wishes,

International PEN Poem Relay

This is the official website of the International PEN China Campaign Poem Relay
Celebrating Linguistic Diversity and Carrying the Torch for Freedom of
Expression in China

The poem 'June' by imprisoned Chinese poet and journalist Shi Tao is
relaying around the world, country to country, language to language,
until it reaches Beijing for the Olympics in August.

PEN Centres around the world have translated 'June' to over 90 (and
still counting) of the world's languages.

When the poem arrives at a new location, you can read and hear a new
translation.

On May 10, the torch is in Shantou, Guangdong, China. So is the poem.
