As Ukrainian I want to thank you so much for rebloging that post. I love your blog so much and what you do and seeing that post from you brought ACTUAL tears to my eyes so THANK YOU so much. <3

harleyrotten answered:

Awww, you don’t need to thank me, and certainly not for something like that! Tumblr has a really vicious way of taking an idea and twisting and warping it until it’s doing more damage than it is raising awareness. So any time I see something like that, where people are pleading for Tumblr to put down it’s social justice flag, I’ll happily reblog it. No questions asked. 

So, you certainly don’t need to thank me. 🙂 I’m glad that the story is being told, and that people are moved by it, and happy about it!! ❤️💙

So there’s a movie coming out about the holodomor

I just want to get a few things out of the way because I know tumblr and how they react to this.

-yes the cast is white Irish/Englishman portraying Eastern Europeans
-Yes they speak in very English accents
-yes there is a somewhat forced heterosexual subplot

But please. For the love of God. Don’t. Boycott it over this. This film is about genocide. About the systematic killing of Ukrainians. There has never been a film about this, it’s never taught in any history book, and to this day Russia denies it ever happened.

This movie is so critical, and as a Ukrainian I am begging you not to shit on it and go full sjw for not accurately depicting the people of the region. Believe me we, Ukrainians, do not fucking care that the representation is not 100% accurate. Seriously, every Ukrainian in the comments of the trailer is begging people to forget about the English accents and are just relieved people are finally learning about this. we want our story heard and we want the world to be aware of Ukrainian suffering and take interest in the nations current state of affairs. Please support Bitter Harvest when it comes out in February.

This is the trailer in quiestion:

PLEASE don’t shit on this movie because apparently the cast isn’t Slavic People. 

I can’t even tell you how much it means to us, Ukrainians, that Hollywood makes a movie about GEMOCIDE IN UKRAINE that so many people don’t even know about! I don’t care there will be a romantic plotline, I don’t care that it wob’t be 100% historic accurate. I just want people to know that Holodomor happened, that it was the man-made genocide, that it was the crime communists don’t want to take responsibilty for still.
