RealClear presents The Samizdat Prize: a new award honoring courageous journalists and public figures who did not flinch when censorship threatened. Samizdat – “self-publishing” in Russian – was the Soviet-era underground publication network.

The RealClear Samizdat Prize honors those who embody the spirit of last century’s Samizdat literary heroes. We celebrate the journalists and public figures who exhibit unwavering commitment to truth and free speech.
