“We’re Not Allowed to Protest — But We Still Fight”: How Georgia’s Youth Are Resisting Tyranny

Date: Jul 16 2025

In this episode of Atlas Network with Michael Carnuccio, we sit down with Alexander Zibzibadze, the courageous founder and chairman of Georgia’s Future Academy, a liberty-focused youth movement in Georgia standing against growing authoritarianism.

From Brussels, Alexander reveals how thousands of young Georgians are resisting government oppression, including surveillance, fines, and even jail time — all in the name of freedom and democracy.

He shares:

- The powerful origin story of Georgia’s Future Academy

- How his team trains youth to fight authoritarianism (including their "Order of the Phoenix" movement)

- Firsthand experiences of intimidation, censorship, and propaganda

- Why Gen Z in Georgia could be the key to lasting liberty in the region
