Robert G. Rose Launches Fall Speaking Tour
In a significant step to support Ukraine amidst ongoing challenges, Robert G. Rose, the creator, producer, and host of the travel series
Raw Travel, is set to embark on a U.S. speaking tour this fall. This initiative aims to spotlight the incredible resilience demonstrated by the Ukrainian people in the face of adversity caused by the ongoing conflict with Russia.
Scheduled to kick off on September 30, 2025, at Calvin University in Grand Rapids, Michigan, the tour will include several stops across the United States, including Burlington, Iowa, and various locations in Tennessee and New York. The primary focus of this tour is on sharing the rich culture and spirit of Ukraine through selected footage from
Raw Travel episodes filmed there in 2019 and eye-opening clips revealing the harrowing realities of life since Russia's full-scale invasion in February 2022.
Robert Rose, a passionate advocate for Ukraine, has traveled to the country seven times, four of which occurred after the full-scale invasion. During his latest visit in the summer of 2025, he captured invaluable footage demonstrating the grit and tenacity of ordinary citizens enduring the threats of drone and missile attacks. His goal is to provide a unique, on-the-ground perspective of Ukraine—a country that is often mischaracterized and misunderstood in the context of war.
"Ukraine is more than a war zone—it's home to incredible people who are resilient and refuse to surrender their freedom," Rose explains. He is dedicated to countering misinformation, fostering solidarity, and reminding audiences that Ukraine's fight represents a broader struggle for democracy.
The events will present a blend of uplifting cultural insights and sobering narratives from the ongoing conflict, offering a comprehensive journey from the vibrant landscape Rose first encountered in 2012 to the current indomitable spirit of its citizens. Each engagement will aim to connect attendees with the heart and soul of Ukraine, urging support and understanding for a nation that is persistently fighting for its democratic future.
