Join us for a meeting with Kateryna Zarembo on September 21st at 17:00. Kateryna will present her book "The Rise of the Ukrainian Sun" online and share insights about the Ukrainian communities of Donetsk and Luhansk, which thrived from the early 2000s.
Until the start of the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2014.
You'll learn about cultural spaces, student communities, Ukrainian villages, and the diverse religious landscape that existed in Donbas, despite being denied by Soviet-Russian myths. This is a story about those who dreamed of living in a free and democratic Ukraine, rather than in a mythologized past.
This meeting offers a unique opportunity to explore the unknown pages of Donetsk and Luhansk's history and to hear the voices of new, post-Soviet communities that were awakening Ukrainian identity.
We look forward to welcoming you on September 21st at 17:00 at Ukraine House.
