“Hour of Interview” with Gregory Antimony
Guest: Ukrainian historian Ihor Shchupak
What is memory made of?
In this bold and thoughtful conversation, historian Ihor Shchupak opens rarely discussed pages of Ukrainian and Jewish history:
— Metropolitan Andrey Sheptytsky and his role in rescuing Jews during the Holocaust
— Why international recognition as a “Righteous Among the Nations” is still delayed
— Parallels between Nazism and Russian fascism (“rashism”)
— Ukrainian-Jewish relations, the Holodomor, the figure of Bohdan Khmelnytsky, and historical myths
— Rare archival materials, family stories, testimonies of the saved
— And the role of historians in shaping national memory — especially in wartime
The program is in Russian, deliberately — to speak truth where propaganda still echoes.
New episode out now — honest, documented, and painfully relevant.
