It was one, so great. But we have more important things to vote or take care of. Holodomor was a genocide and took the lives of many in awful suffering. But we can't do anything now. We gotta save those who are still alive.

An important step to do that is to learn from the past and call out what was right and what was wrong.

I agree. This recognition sends a signal to would-be genocidal regimes in Europe that they’re not going to get away with things like they might have in the past.

I recommend watching the movie Mr. Jones if you’d like to learn more about the Holodomor.
