🎙️ About This Episode:

In this haunting episode of The History AI Podcast, Chuck and Marco uncover the truth behind one of the most devastating—and deliberately concealed—atrocities of the 20th century: the Holodomor, or Terror-Famine, that ravaged Ukraine in 1932–1933.

What began as a Soviet policy of collectivization under Stalin became a tool of calculated destruction. Through forced grain seizures, border blockades, and cultural repression, millions of Ukrainians were starved into submission. But this wasn’t just famine—it was genocide by hunger.

We’ll explore:

• The roots of Ukraine’s resistance to Soviet control
• How Stalin weaponized food as a means of political domination
• The horrors experienced during the height of the famine
• The decades-long cover-up and the ongoing global fight for recognition
• Why the memory of the Holodomor is more relevant than ever today

This is a story of suffering—but also of survival. Of a nation that refused to be erased.
