Forty-one years ago this Fall, some 18,000 people came from all over the United States (and some from Canada) to the capital of the United States, to commemorate the 50th anniversary of what at the time was called the Great Famine of 1932-1933, now known as the Holodomor. A mass rally at the Washington Monument followed by a march to the Soviet Embassy was held on October 2. It was the second-largest gathering of Ukrainian Americans in Washington D.C. ever \u2013 the largest being the dedication of the Taras Shevchenko memorial on June 27, 1964. Other events held throughout that week included a memorial concert at the Kennedy Center, exhibits, a scholarly symposium, a special order in Congress featuring speeches from members of Congress, a reception in the Capitol and the introduction of legislation calling for the creation of a Famine Commission.<\/span><\/p>

The 1983 memorial events in the capital of the free world were a milestone in raising awareness of one of the most colossal genocides in human history. Notably, those events gave impetus to further action.<\/span><\/p>

At the time, 41 years ago, little was known about Ukraine. Many Americans conflated russia with the Soviet Union and Ukrainians with russians. There were few articles in the media. Few people seemed to care about Ukraine\u2019s aspirations for freedom and human rights besides the Ukrainian American community and their friends in the U.S. Congress. Even less was known about the Holodomor, with little in the way of English-language scholarship on the topic. The Soviets denied that it happened altogether, banning any discussion of it, or they claimed that it was not man-made, but it was a natural disaster. Then, as now, Moscow lied repeatedly and without compunction. All too many in the West, including in the academic world, adopted this false narrative.<\/span><\/p>

Mind you, there had been earlier efforts by Ukrainian Americans to bring attention to the Holodomor. During the 1930s, while the Famine was raging, Ukrainians held protests in numerous American cities and wrote memorandums to then-President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Large demonstrations were held in U.S. cities in 1953 on the 20th anniversary, with a reported 15,000 in New York listening to remarks by Raphael Lemkin, the Polish-Jewish lawyer best known for coining the term \u201cgenocide.\u201d But this was not enough to put the Great Famine of 1932-33 on America\u2019s radar screen.<\/span><\/p>

Notwithstanding the ignorance about Ukraine (or, for that matter, the other Captive Nations) in October 1983, a good deal of attention was being paid to the Soviet Union, or, as President Ronald Reagan called it in March of that year, the \u201cevil empire\u201d and the \u201cfocus of evil in the modern world.\u201d Adding to this negative perception was the Soviet downing of Korean Airlines Flight 007, which took the lives of 269 innocent people, including an American Congressman, a month before the anniversary commemoration, on September 1, 1983. As a personal aside, a few days after the shootdown, I was in Madrid, Spain as a member of the U.S. delegation for the conclusion of a conference of the 35 member states of the Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe (CSCE). Indelibly imprinted in my mind is the dour look of Soviet Foreign Affairs Minister Andrei Gromyko \u2013 referred to in the West as \u201cgrim Grom\u201d because the man was never known to smile \u2013 walking into the large conference hall. A few minutes later, U.S. Secretary of State George Schultz entered the hall with an even grimmer visage and delivered a tough speech calling KAL 007 a \u201cbrutal tragedy, shocking to the conscience of the world.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

The KAL shootdown, still fresh in the minds of the media, along with the outstanding public relations work by the National Committee to Commemorate Genocide Victims in Ukraine 1932-1933, which organized the Washington rally, helped to garner considerable publicity for the Ukrainian cause.<\/span><\/p>

Knowledge about Ukraine and the Holodomor has come a long, long way since 1983, when the 50th anniversary commemorations in the nation\u2019s capital helped to galvanize the Ukrainian American community and began to increase awareness among Americans. The next few years saw the publication of Robert Conquest\u2019s ground-breaking academic study \u201cThe Harvest of Sorrow\u201d and Slavko Nowytski\u2019s 1985 award-winning film, \u201cHarvest of Despair.\u201d Of utmost significance was the creation by the U.S. Congress of the U.S. Commission on the Ukraine Famine \u2013 an enormous testament to the dedication of Ukrainian American activists who tirelessly advocated for its passage into law. Headed by prominent Holodomor historian James Mace as its staff director, the Commission issued its final report to Congress in 1988, with its most notable conclusion being that \u201cJoseph Stalin and those around him committed genocide against Ukrainians in 1932-1933.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

In the intervening years, we have seen much growth in awareness about the Holodomor, with numerous serious scholarly works and an almost universal acknowledgment that this needless, horrific tragedy was man-made. It has also been increasingly officially recognized as a genocide. There are now many more references to the Holodomor in the general media \u2013 in part, because of the current Russian genocide against the Ukrainian people. A radically different environment exists today in terms of knowledge about Ukraine, and, more importantly, tangible support for Ukraine\u2019s freedom from the American public, the Executive branch and Congress (certain isolationist segments of the Republican party notwithstanding).<\/span><\/p>

On that sunny Sunday 41 years ago, after thousands marched from the Washington Monument to the Soviet Embassy, I was tasked with reading an \u201cOpen Letter to the Kremlin,\u201d to the crowd, standing as closely as was permitted to the Soviet embassy. The letter, written by Mr. Mace and Andrij Bilyk, who coordinated media relations for the National Committee, condemned the Kremlin for the tragedies inflicted upon the Ukrainian people. Much of the letter resonates to this day.<\/span><\/p>

While we have witnessed dramatic changes in the last four decades, notably the dissolution of the Soviet Union and the re-emergence of an independent Ukraine, one thing most certainly and tragically has not changed: Moscow continues its assault on the Ukrainian nation, people and identity as it has for centuries, and it continues to pose a threat to the entire free world.<\/span><\/p>

The last paragraph of the open letter holds as true today as it did 41 years ago (all it would need is a reference to Russia\u2019s current genocide against the Ukrainian people): \u201cWe Americans of Ukrainian descent, together with all Americans and the people of the world who respect human life \u2013 and value human liberty \u2013 will see to it that those who died in your man-made famine in Ukraine \u2026 that those who continue to suffer under your dictatorship \u2013 we will see to it that they did not die, nor will they suffer, in vain.\u201d Indeed, we must see to it now, as never before, for the sake of those who have died and continue to suffer and die. The stakes have never been higher. Slava Ukraini!<\/span><\/p>
