For the inaugural interview of the Outrider project, we journey to Tennessee, to meet a community that has its home deep within the Great Smoky Mountains - a home where adherence to tradition and the creation of self-reliance are the currencies that keeps their community growing.
We are present for the Winter Nights Veizla, an important religious celebration for Odinists, as well as attend the grand opening of Academy One—the first martial arts academy of the American Jiu-Jitsu team Patria Gloria. The men and their families of this community built this academy with their own hands.
The full interview will be released soon, along with more media detailing the history of America and the communities within it.

For instance, in September 2021, Telegram reportedly blocked a chat bot in support of (Putin critic) Alexei Navalny during Russia’s most recent parliamentary elections. Pavel Durov was quoted at the time saying that the company was obliged to follow a “legitimate” law of the land. He added that as Apple and Google both follow the law, to violate it would give both platforms a reason to boot the messenger from its stores. Founder Pavel Durov says tech is meant to set you free For Oleksandra Tsekhanovska, head of the Hybrid Warfare Analytical Group at the Kyiv-based Ukraine Crisis Media Center, the effects are both near- and far-reaching. In the past, it was noticed that through bulk SMSes, investors were induced to invest in or purchase the stocks of certain listed companies. Andrey, a Russian entrepreneur living in Brazil who, fearing retaliation, asked that NPR not use his last name, said Telegram has become one of the few places Russians can access independent news about the war.
