• Why the Martyred Tsar Nicholas II Is One of the Most Important Figures Ever

Russia Insider has featured quite a number of articles honouring the Romanovs. I would just recommend searching on keywords such as “Romanovs” and see what you get.
Here I have just searched on “Nicholas” and you can filter what is of interest.
The channel is operated by Anne Lloyd, an artist who has painted a series of portraits of the Romanov family in order to, as she says in one video “give them back their faces”. Her videos are typically montages of historical still photographs and her own artwork. Another example (select the link to her channel for more)
I recognised Nick Nicholson as the Director of Development of the Russia History Museum (RHM). The RHM presents a monthly (usually second Saturday) lecture on various topics of interest to do with the museum, relating to Russian history and culture.
Here is Nick giving the first of such lectures on the Russia History Museum channel
• Black Gold: Russian Lacquer from the 18th -20th Centuries
“Thanks Skool. First of all I have to say the Romanoffs are the epitome of classic white striking beauty and handsomeness. No make-up needed or required. Talk about clear dress distinctions between girls and boys, women and men, the way it should be. Being taught with high morals and classic white western education, the way it should be. They in a way represent the martyrdom of classic white Western Civilization, the eastern half. The other half has been steadily increasingly mingled with other skin colors, cultures, politics, and faiths, thanks to the hateful revengeful plotting of the Globalist Marxists at Frankfurt school.
The negative painting of the Romanoffs would logically have been very negative from the supremacist Marxist Globalist history revisionists, who hate whites especially Christian and ethnic Russians, and want them vilified and dead. That double-agent priest leading gullible Russians to their deaths was likely from the Globalist Tribe, as were all the leading Bolshevists carrying out the genocide, as are all the ones carrying out today's destruction of the West by mass non-white immigration, intermarriage, leadership, and LGBT madness & perversion of whites. The four 'privileged' Romanoff sisters actually doing hard work and really caring for wounded and sick, not entitled and isolated in ivory towers; and not like pampered arrogant elites of today. Christian teaching, lost to us today, shaped them. Fascinating about Russia's true history released after the 90's, not official skewed narrative.”
I have recently completed reading Matthew Raphael Johnson’s “A Circle of Betrayal, Cowardice and Deceit – On the 100th Anniversary of the Ritual Murder of the Russian Royal Family” which I found on Lulu.
