Ukraine

 

Seven years ago I photographed an anti-Putin demonstration by Ukrainian-Americans in Union Square. As now, Putin was extending Russian influence and domination into the eastern part of the country, although not as dramatically as he is today.

 

For those of you not familiar with NYC neighborhoods, Manhattan's Union Square is adjacent to the East Village, where the remnants of a once larger population of Ukrainian-Americans still lives.
