About the exposition

The poster version of the exposition “Not To Be Forgotten: A Chronicle of the Communist Inquisition in Ukraine 1917.1991” was jointly produced and financed by the Kyiv City Organization of the All Ukrainian Memorial Society of Vasyl Stus and Ukrainian diaspora organizations in the U.S. and Canada. The set of posters and educational handbook have been published in order to honor the memory of the victims of the catastrophic Famine-Genocide in Ukraine and to inform the Ukrainian and world communities about this little-known page from the tragic history of Ukraine during the Communist period. The materials presented here are designed to vanquish historical and political myths created by the Soviet totalitarian regime and to fill in the blank spots in Ukraine's history.
