In honor of the millions of victims of the Ukrainian famine (Holodomor) of 1932-33: A discussion with an expert
Manage episode 451282767 series 3579871
Did you know Russia starved to death at least 4 million Ukrainians in a single year?
The Ukrainian man-made famine of 1932-33, known as the Holodomor in Ukrainian, is recognized by most Western nations as an act of genocide conducted by Moscow on the Ukrainian people.
In light of the annual commemoration of the Holodomor on November 23, 2024 (always the 4th Saturday of November), I spoke w Tetiana Soproniuk, a PhD candidate at the Nizhyn Mykola Gogol State University in Ukraine. Her research is focused on the public sentiments of the Ukrainian population of the 1920s and 1930s, Soviet propaganda, and the 1932-33 famine. In 2018-2021, she worked at the Holodomor Museum in Kyiv. Along with giving tours for visitors, she was recording the memories of the 1932-1933 famine survivors, marking the mass graves and collecting the names of the Holodomor victims.
I find it ironic in the US we have Thanksgiving in the same week, on the 4th Thursday of November, though in the US case marking a holiday of abundance and freedom. In Ukraine’s case, they commemorate the millions of victims of starvation and repression at the hands of Russia, in hopes of finally gaining their freedom.
Please listen to this podcast to remember that this current genocidal war is not the first time Russia has conducted a genocidal campaign against Ukraine. And Ukrainians know it won’t be the last unless the West wakes up and stops Moscow.
It’s a tragedy itself that this tragedy is not well-known in the Western world.
Please reshare to keep up awareness of this tragedy and the suffering and strength of the Ukrainian people amid this ongoing war.
