Webcam chats or even face-to-face meetings that can lead to sexual exploitation by predators. Social media gives predators the chance to build a kind of shared online experience which will result in them becoming the child's defender or playmate. After defeating a tough boss or exploring a new area in the game, predators form a bond with younger gamers and build a set of shared experiences that lead to a more personal question. Parents need to combat this problem teaching and monitoring your children about online risks with yourself attending the "Child Internet Safety Event"

Contraband manuscripts from the Soviet Union, published abroad with or without their authors’ knowledge or consent, served as a powerful weapon on the literary fronts of the Cold War. Comprised of texts rejected or never submitted for publication at home but smuggled through various channels and printed elsewhere, tamizdat contributed to the formation of the twentieth-century Russian literary canon. Suffice it to say that the majority of representative works of this canon (with a few important exceptions, such as Solzhenitsyn’s One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich) were first published abroad long before they first saw the light of day in Russia, already after Perestroika. Mediating the relationships of many authors in Russia with the literary establishment, on the one hand, and with the nonconformist underground, on the other, the prospect of having their works printed abroad, not to mention the consequences of such a transgression, affected these authors’ choices and ideological positions vis-à-vis both fields.

The conference seeks to define tamizdat as an integral phenomenon of post-Stalinist culture and situate it in the context of its more familiar and better researched domestic counterparts, samizdat (unofficial self-publishing) and gosizdat (state publishing). In an effort to explore the patterns of circulation of manuscripts behind the Iron Curtain and their migration through it, scholars from around the world will revisit the traditional notion of Soviet culture as a dichotomy between the official and underground fields and look at it instead as a transnationally dynamic three-dimensional model, with tamizdat at its base. The papers will explore tamizdat from a theoretical, comparative or historical perspective, or trace the itineraries of individual manuscripts and the stories of their first publications and reception abroad. Of particular interest are works by authors who were still alive at the time their writings appeared in tamizdat. While the conference focuses primarily on manuscripts written and published in Russian, it also deals with non-Russian literatures of Eastern Europe, as well as with the translation and adaptation of literary manuscripts from behind the Iron Curtain into foreign languages.

When the best-selling author and journalist Ruta Vanagaite (born in Šiauliai, Lithuania) discovered that her own relatives were complicit in the murder of Lithuanian Jews during the World War II era, she became determined to awaken the consciousness of her countrymen. In this effort, she co-authored Mūsiškiai (Our People: A Journey with an Enemy, with Dr. Efraim Zuroff), a book that uncovers Lithuanians' wartime atrocities. In the face of the hostility that her work has caused, Vanagaite is undertaking an international campaign for truth and justice. In her appearances and speeches all over the world, she discusses with various audiences her struggle to break the silence and the enormous controversy her work has stirred. Mūsiškiai has deeply affected public discourse about Nazi collaborators and the search for truth among many young Europeans.
