HOW YOU CAN HELP UKRAINIANS

Lyubov Panchenko is a Ukrainian artist and fashion designer

Lyubov Panchenko (1938 - 2022) was a Ukrainian artist and fashion designer, winner of the Vasyl Stus Prize, who belonged to a group of artists of the Sixties who revived Ukrainian culture during the Khrushchev Thaw.

A talented fashion designer, Lyubov Panchenko worked in various genres of art, including watercolors, linocuts, fantasy decorative paintings, and collage paintings made of coat fabric.

Panchenko's artistic and political impulse was in full force for the rest of her life. When Russian troops advanced on her hometown of Bucha, she remained at home under occupation for more than a month. Starvation and isolation led to her death on April 30, 2022.

i don't know how to say this but if you see something get called russian culture maybe double check. many people online have no fucking clue how many things they claim as theirs that are simply not. this cultural erasing is a tool of genocide, because when you have no culture, you have no language, you have no nation. please fucking use your brain. i bet you a million dollars you've seen borshch (also spelled borscht) as a russian dish but it is literally one of our national dishes. look up the ems ukaz. the erasure of our culture isn't new so think for a second. did you know dostoyevskyy was ethnically ukrainian? what about gogol? what about ryepin? aivazovskyy was ukrainian with armenian roots. and yet they are all pillars of "russian art". do you get it yet? they ruined our lands, made the best education all russian, gave you rights and respect if you lived as a russian and they succeeded in it. these people are russian to history now, our culture is being erased and only we care
