The Holodomor refers to the man-made famine in the Ukraine Soviet republic from 1932-1933 which resulted in mass starvation and millions of deaths. The Holodomor is now known as an act of genocide against the Ukrainian peasantry. On the surface, the Holodomor was disguised as “the need of bread for the cities,” amplified by industrialization. While the need for bread in cities was real, the Holodomor was carried out by the Soviet government as part of the broader Soviet famine that targeted the grain-growing regions of Russia and Kazakhstan from 1931-34. The famine was part of a broader Soviet campaign of repression and persecution against the Ukrainian identity, aimed at destroying any seeds of independence and cultural autonomy in Ukraine following the Ukrainian-Soviet War in which Ukraine had briefly established itself as an independent state.
