The UOC of USA Metropolia Center has also been the site of many Holodomor commemoration activities. plain 2023-06-15T17:02:19-04:00 Michael Andrec b47dc81430ec8a9df031d1883b5156df4684c670This page is referenced by:

This exhibition does not attempt to present scholarly history or to address the vast scholarly and popular literature that now exists on the topic of the Holodomor. For those interested in more historical detail, there are a number of recent books in English that deal with the Holodomor and its broader context. We particularly recommend Bloodlands by Timothy Snyder and Red Famine by Anne Applebaum.
There are also many excellent online resources on the Holodomor, including the Canadian-based Holodomor Research and Education Consortium, the Holodomor Museum in Kyiv, and the Ukrainian Canadian Research and Documentation Centre in Toronto. These sites include a wealth of historical information, oral histories, educational resources, and other information. We also recommend the Harvard Ukrainian Research Institute "MAPA Digital Atlas of Ukraine" Great Famine Project, which includes unique demographic and cartographic resources.
For a more general overview of Ukrainian history from ancient times through the eve of the full-scale Russian invasion, we suggest the concise and very readable account by Serhii Plokhy in The Gates of Europe.
This exhibition also does not attempt to cover Holodomor commemorations or monuments, despite the fact that these are topics to which the UHEC has a special connection. Either topic could be the subject of an entire exhibition on its own, so we have chosen to not cover those topics in order to keep the scope of the exhibition within realistic bounds. There has been considerable scholarly study of these topics, including a monograph by Wiktoria Kudela-Świątek.
