THIS SATURDAY THE 13th 3:30PM
TIMES SQUARE MANHATTAN
Join us, stand with us in protest to demand the release and better treatment of Ukrainian POW’s.
Multiple International organizations have claimed a role of responsibility in protecting POW’s yet we see nothing be done as Ukrainian Prisoners Of War are tortured, Mutilated, and Killed. Let us stand together and demand action !
We will also stand together against the silencing of the truth by media powers such as Meta, Instagram, and Twitter. The truth cannot be silenced !
Join us this Saturday 3:30pm at Times Square.

This Saturday our community participated in a silent protest across 9 locations in Manhattan.
My group protested at Bowling Green Park.
The War Is Not Over
We as activists must continue to remind people of the struggle and brutal war that our people are fighting against. Many wish to simply forget or choose to ignore what is happening. We must show them the truth and urgency of the situation.
The history of Bowling Green Park is that of Freedom and Independence. It is in this park where American Revolutionaries tore down a statue of the British King. Overlooked by the man that would be the first elected US President George Washington. This old, little, yet beautiful park will forever be a sign of Freedom and Independence. Once it saw the revolutionaries hoisting flags of Blue, Red, white with thirteen strips and stars.
Now we see the Yellow and Blue at this venerable park standing for the same core values of Freedom, Independence, and democracy.
Glory to Ukraine
Glory to the Hero’s.
To those that participated you have my deepest gratitude. I hope to continue seeing you all in our weekly protests.
💛💙🇺🇦

LINK IN MY BIO
Thx @gregfernandez.jpg for some of the awesome footage !
From Washington Square Park to City Hall we marched. Thank you to all that marched with us🇺🇦.
For five months Ruzzia continues to engage in its failed invasion of Ukraine. We witness video record every day of the Ruzzian Army and it’s campaign of terror and brutality. This isn’t a war of simple conquest, the truth is that this is a war of extermination. This isn’t the first time that Ruzzia showed it’s colonial ambitions and attempted to destroy Ukraine and it’s people. They always fail to do so and they will again.
As my friend @aleksandr.krapivkin said: “..We all activists, whether you like it or not..”
It is our moral duty and mission to engage in political protest in support of Ukraine. This war isn’t only fought on the ground with bullets and bombs, there is a new front; one that people refer to as the ‘Digital Front’ or the Information war. This our battle and we must continue to hold the upper hand against whatever odds we come against.
I hope to see you all next week…the week after that and the one after. I will always be there. I never asked or wanted to be in the spotlight or have to be so politically active. But this conflict is a personal one for me and I have no other choice. So until victory and there after I will never stop. Glory to Ukraine and Glory to its Hero’s 🇺🇦💛💙.

Made another video !
Thx to @gregfernandez.jpg for some epic footage !!
Five months have passed and I dedicate this video to that. Our community has achieved things that in 18 years of living in New York City I couldn’t imagine. To all of those that come out every week you have my deepest gratitude💛💙.
Let’s keep coming out every week and not stop until victory. Only then should we rest !

This Saturday 3pm we are meeting at the arch of Washington Square Park.
I ask that everyone comes and marching with us. This one is important since it has been a total of five months of brutal war.
Our enemy Ruzzia believed they can destroy a sovereign democracy within 3 days but they were halted. Ukraine continues for months to guard the freedom of the world against evil at great cost !
March with us this Saturday !

It has been months since that dreadful February night. In those five months all over the world we saw the globe become a little more yellow and blue. We united together under common cause and became a force of change.
In these five months I want to remind everyone of how much we have accomplished together every week we meet.
For example in these photos are pictures of me during the 37th annual immigrants parade. The Ukrainian community makes up a number of at least 150 thousand people here in NYC but was never represented in this parade. We changed that this year and will continue to do so. This was a tremendous achievement for our community.
Here is a quote for you all, “Peaceful protest is more effective when creating real change. Peaceful protest wins over the hearts and minds of the majority. That majority continues to grow. It is like sunlight and water for your garden.” - Leland Lewis.
When people ask me the purpose of our weekly activism I will point to this quote.
Thank you to everyone that stands with us every week. You are all hero’s 💛💙.

As I promised many of you. It is finally happening !!
This one is important. We will March and protest against Russian Propaganda Influence.
Throughout the 20th and now 21st century, Russia has perfected its propaganda machine and strategies. They refer to it as ‘Maskirovka’ the art of deception. Russian propaganda may seem over the top and obvious but that only masks their actual successful efforts of deception. It is a powerful weapon they use worldwide and it’s influence is spread all over.
What many fail to understand is the purpose of Russian propaganda.
It is not trying to convince you…
It is trying to sow doubt in your thought process. Russias goals are to make people doubt the truth/facts. Unfortunately it works and we must stop it.
So stand with us this Saturday and let’s tell the people the truth !

So I made a little video. I'm new to video editing but hopefully I'll get better.
......
I look back to the beginning. It feels so long ago but its only months.
So many unique faces from all over the globe.
We weren't strangers, no. We are brothers, sisters, and cousins not related by blood but in spirit.
All we needed was an extraordinary reason to be closer.
Community doesn't describe it, maybe family ?
Five months....every week we are shoulder to shoulder.
I see so many smiles.
I feel so many tears.
Shoulder to shoulder,
We held on to hope.
Against all the despair.
We Stand,
We Protest,
We March,
We Rallied,
We Chant,
We Sing,
We Shout,
We listen,
We Wept,
Together.
It's not over yet, we have more to do.
Do not despair Ukraine has not fallen.
It has risen.
Every week,
I will be there.
The Blue and the Yellow above.
It will never fall.
