Inquirer readers on Ukrainian history and the final Parent Trip.
I have no argument with what was written about the Elkins Park memorial to an SS unit composed of Ukrainian soldiers in Sunday’s Inquirer. I am troubled by the story, and the fact of a. Part of my disquiet stems from the knowledge that there are those in this country who are questioning U.S. support for Ukraine, and stories such as these may help erode that support. This is not to say that we should mute information.
Readers should know about the Ukrainian famine of 1932-33 that was deliberately provoked by the Soviet Union. Called Holodomor by the Ukrainians, or “death by hunger,” between 3.5 to 5 million people died. The primary cause was the “collectivization” of agriculture and the collapse of family farming. The famine was accompanied by a campaign of repression and persecution that was carried out against Ukrainian culture and Ukrainian religious leaders.
Since 2006, the Holodomor has been recognized by the European Parliament and 25 other countries as a genocide against the Ukrainian people carried out by the Soviet government. Russia denies it. Ukrainians lost a huge percentage of their population, their neighbors, their friends, and their family members. You do not forget such an atrocity in a short time. The Ukrainian SS brigade was formed in 1943. That was 10 years after the famine.
