Explaining the Holodomor to global audiences
Andrea Chalupa talks to Daria Mattingly about the history of public understanding of the Holodomor, comparing the invaluable work of Welsh journalist Gareth Jones, with the falsifications of the far more prominent journalist Walter Duranty, a contrast central to her book In the Shadow of Stalin: The Story of Mr. Jones. 15 Nov 2024. 79 Holland Park.
In November, Ukraine marks the Day of Memory for Victims of the Holodomor. The man-made famine of the 1930s has received much attention in the diaspora and inside the country, thanks to numerous research and commemorative initiatives conducted since Ukraine regained independence. However, this page of history continues to be poorly understood beyond Ukraine’s borders.
Speaker
Andrea Chalupa is a Brooklyn-based journalist, author, and filmmaker. As the host and producer of the Webby Award Honoree civic action podcast Gaslit Nation, she passionately addresses the threat of fascism globally. Andrea Chalupa is the writer-producer of the journalistic thriller Mr. Jones, directed by three-time Academy Award-nominee Agnieszka Holland and starring James Norton, Vanessa Kirby, and Peter Sarsgaard. Her books include the graphic novels In the Shadow of Stalin and Dictatorship: It’s Easier Than You Think. In 2014, she initiated #DigitalMaidan, a viral hashtag supporting the EuroMaidan revolution in Ukraine. Andrea Chalupa wrote and directed the short documentary The Holodomor: Stalin’s Secret Genocide, shown at the United Nations in 2016. Her frequent speaking engagements share inspiring insights into global affairs, US politics, and saving democracy. She has spoken at the Council of Europe, the National Press Club, the National Arts Club, a committee room at the House of Lords, and universities in the US, Canada, Europe, and the Middle East. Andrea Chalupa studied Soviet History at the University of California, and Ukrainian at the Harvard Ukrainian Research Institute. Her commitment to human rights was inspired by her parents, born in European displaced persons camps after World War II. She delves into this personal history in her book, Orwell and The Refugees: The Untold Story of Animal Farm, revealing a ‘special gift’ from Orwell in her family.
Speaker

    I got it. People in comments want to make Ukraine responsible for everything. Very convenient to beat the weakest, to make us the worst, because we overreacted sometimes and made bad decisions. Why don’t you blame Italy, for example? Or Slovakia? Why can’t I read anything about Hungary? Why don’t you remind Japan that it was nazzi ally from the beginning? Hypocrites. Yes, Ukrainians collaborated with Germans. For how long? Ukrainians killed Jews? Yes, so did the Poles and others. Are the Ukrainians the word because of Babyn Yar? So why than don’t you call the Poles like that? Let me remind you where the most “famous” camp was situated. Once again, hypocrites

    If the Nazi Germany had only wanted Ukraine, well they had it. Why would they be fighting all the way in Stalingrad, St Petersburg, towards Moscow or any of that? They also needed oil. Romanian oil wasn't enough. They wanted Baku, too. If it hadn't been for the attempt to reach the Caspian oil, and the necessity for doing so, the Nazi Germany would have easily annexed Ukraine and then turtled against Moscow. They could have then slowly starved the Russians in the subsequent 20 years. Or there would have been a revolution again. It wasn't so much the Stalingrad that did Germans in. It was the hasty and necessary reach over the Caucasus for oil. Otherwise, they would have stopped after taking Rostov.

    I started watching this yesterday and finished today, March 9, 2024. Very important topics. My father married my mother after he graduated from Officer Candidate School and while he was in tank school. He went off to fight in Italy and was wounded at Anzio. He survived the war. My parents began making a family. I was the second of four boys. Around the time that I was nine years old in the fourth grade, the impact of the war began to take its toll on our family. My father’s mental health deteriorated, he no longer worked, my mother who had a high school education had to figure out how to hold the family together. Daddy was in the mental section of a veterans hospital receiving electroshock therapy. As difficult as this was, it is incomparable to women veterans coming home. Excellent that this conversation is taking place. For my father, there were no conversations. We children were not told anything. Figuring out what to tell the children. How to talk to the children will be hard, but it must be done.

    very good overview of Russian narratives. I would just add why propaganda works. During the period of the Soviet Union, people could not speak their minds because they were punished more or less severely, even to the point of complete repression. Therefore, parents were even afraid to tell their children what happened to their family. So many facts were erased from people's memory, and many of the current 50s remember only that period when the Soviet Union was strengthened and life was quite stable compared to previous times. It was only necessary to support the then government and not criticize in any way.
