Manage episode 401083996 series 3284458
The January 29-30, 1918 Batty of Kruty pitted young Ukrainian soldiers against a larger attacking Red Army. Ukraine only just declared independence and the youth of this nation sacrificed their lives to keep their government alive. Their sacrifice was immortalized, commemorated year after year in the Diaspora and silenced in the Soviet Union. Almost 100 years later, another Battle of Kruty occurred but with very different outcomes. In this episode, we explore how the battle occurred and why it became important in Ukrainian commemoration and national consciousness.
