Holodomor - food, a weapon
2016
Overview
I grew up with my maternal grand-parents, immigrants from Ukraine in 1910. Never once, not as a child, or as an adult, did I hear any discussion or comment from them or their Ukrainian community of the tragedy in the country they left behind. Not until I read British journalist, Robert Conquest's chilling book, Harvest of Sorrow, (1987) did I get a picture of the famine that crippled Ukraine in 1932-33 and killed millions of Ukrainian peasant farmers, academic, artists, clergy and others. Holodomor - coined from two words: \"holod\", meaning starvation and \"mor\" meaning death, hence, death-by-starvation, in 1990 in the United States and Canada, -became widely used to describe this famine-genocide. Former Prime Minister Stephen Harper officially recognized Holodomor as genocide in 2008.
