From 1932-1933, Soviet Ukraine experienced a famine that most agree was artificial and was the result of Stalin's suppression of Ukrainian independence and the kulaks (wealthy peasants) who resisted the forced collectivization of their lands. The intentionally induced famine/genocide was directly responsible for the slow, and torturous death of countless Ukrainian farmers. Unlike the alleged Jewish holocaust, this was a real Holocaust on an unimaginable scale, and it happened to White Russ, not Jews — White people, which is why it is never given much thought or attention to in world history.
It is called the forgotten holocaust, a time when Stalin was dumping millions of tons of wheat on the Western markets, while in the Ukraine, people were dying of starvation at the rate of 25,000 each day. Ten million perished in a famine caused not by war or natural disaster, but by decree. Blinded by leftwing ideals, world statesmen, journalists, and celebrities all contributed to the regime's campaign of concealment — a process that continues on to this very day.
This video is meant to inform as well as invoke emotion about the famine and genocide which is still quite prevalent in today's world.

IN THE FALL and spring of 1932 and 1933, the government of the Soviet Union created a man-made famine in Ukraine to quell what was perceived as the dangerous threat of regional nationalism. With alarming design, the authorities succeeded in their goal. The possibility of rebellion was eliminated at a most terrible cost of millions of lives. |
