Parma-Snow Branch

Sari Feldman Auditorium (400)

Link the genocide, forced population relocations, and Ukrainian resistance of the Holodomor to today's struggle for identity, sovereignty, and survival during Holodomor Remembrance Month.

Join us for a powerful and eye-opening program that connects the past to the present. As the world watches Ukraine fight for its survival, we look back to a haunting chapter too often forgotten: the Holodomor, the man-made famine of 1932–33 that claimed millions of lives and sought to silence a nation. 

This special program opens with a brief introduction, then a viewing of Black Raven, a gripping short documentary that brings to life the quiet defiance of those who resisted Soviet terror.

Following the film, stay for a live Q&A session—engage with presenters, share reflections, and explore why the Holodomor is not just history, but a warning and a call to remember.

Presented by Branch 8 of the Ukrainian Women's League of America (UWLA).
