XXXIІI Конвенція СУА 176 Since the last UNWLA Convention, our Branch, as all other Branches, has endured the social and physical effects of the COVID 19 pandemic, and then watched with horror and fury as putin brutally escalated an aggressive, genocidal war against the people, land, and culture of Ukraine that began on February 24, 2022. For the past three years, certain activities had to be curtailed and as of February 2022, most of our activities were concentrated on raising funds to help Ukraine receive humanitarian aid during the war, while continuing to promote Ukrainian culture and Ukraine’s true history. Despite unusual, historical change, we nevertheless continue to care for the welfare of the people who are in need in the community in which we live. In 2021, during the COVID lockdown, we kept in touch with Branch members and our community through Zoom meetings. Our annual rizdviana zustrich was held on Zoom. Our goal was to cheer up our Branch members and viewers from our community with the Ukrainian koliady, reading of poems, and sharing Christmas wishes. Branch President Lesia Popel opened the program, and event chair Ksenia Rakowsky served as emcee. Again during the COVID lockdown, in order to lift the spirits of Branch members, Branch Cultural Committee Chair Ksenia Rakowsky presented via Zoom, a multi-faceted evening of Ukrainian literature, music, and humor. The program featured readings of Ukrainian humorists Edward Kozak, and Pavlo Hlazovyi, poetry recitations, vocal and instrumental selections.
