Bitter Memories of Childhood
This statue is erected at the Manitoba Legislature in memory of the Holodomor in September 2014. Surprisingly, I had never heard of it until I was walking around the grounds of the Legislature.
This statue is a replica of the entrance of the Holodomor Memorial Museum in the Ukraine.
The Holodomor (Ukrainian: Голодомор, "Extermination by hunger" or "Hunger-extermination";[2] derived from морити голодом, "to kill by starvation"[3][4][5]) was a man-made famine in the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic in 1932 and 1933 that killed an estimated 2.5–7.5 million Ukrainians, with millions more counted in demographic estimates. It was part of the wider disaster, the Soviet famine of 1932–33, which affected the major grain-producing areas of the country.
