In August 2020, Belarus burst into a massive peaceful protest against dictatorship, met with immense violence. We could see a direct connection between private traumas - such as domestic abuse, and public traumas - such as state violence. The crackdown on the protest and the ongoing repressions have resulted in destruction of the social support networks. Today, every second Belarusian woman is concerned about facing physical or sexualised violence and 83% of women are afraid of violence from the law enforcement agencies. These women are left on their own and silenced, and the trauma is expanding. With this project I aim to explore my personal and familial experience of domestic abuse and state violence in Belarus as well as the power of poetry to enable women to share their experiences of gender-based violence and patriarchy and find empowerment in that. Autoethnography, as a research method which combines autobiography and ethnography, allows me to place my personal and familial experience in a large social, political and cultural context in order to highlight the big social issues and bring about change. The practical outcome of this research will be a body of poetry that seeks to raise awareness and promote societal change around domestic abuse and misogyny in Belarus

2020年8月，白俄罗斯爆发了对独裁统治的大规模和平抗议，发生了巨大的暴力。我们可以看到私人创伤（例如家庭虐待和公共创伤）之间的直接联系，例如州暴力。抗议和持续的压抑的镇压导致了社会支持网络的破坏。如今，每一个白俄罗斯妇女都担心面对身体或性暴力，有83％的妇女害怕执法机构的暴力行为。这些妇女独自留下来，沉默，创伤正在扩大。通过这个项目，我旨在探索我在白俄罗斯对家庭虐待和国家暴力行为的个人和家庭经历，以及诗歌的力量，使妇女能够分享她们对基于性别的暴力和父权制的经验，并在其中找到赋权。作为一种结合自传和人种志的研究方法，自身人口志使我能够将自己的个人和家庭经历放在庞大的社会，政治和文化背景下，以突出大型社会问题并带来变革。这项研究的实际结果将是一群诗歌，试图提高意识并促进白俄罗斯围绕家庭虐待和厌女症的社会变革
