1024 576 GULAG witnesses

«My father remembered how the teachers were starving, sitting with swollen legs, and asking students if their parents could send them something to eat». Zhanna Kryzhanovska, daughter of repressed political prisoner and human rights defender Mykola Bereslavsky, shares memories of the times of the Holodomor and Soviet repressions. Her stories are a testament to the tragedy of the Ukrainian people, a vital voice of remembrance of the past, a voice that must be heard today to prevent similar tragedies in the future.
