Some folks keep posting references to the holodomor and claim it wasn't taught in public schools, but it most certainly was taught down here. I understand nothing much at all is taught these days but back in the 60-70s it was taught here.
Yeah, stalin did intentionally starve millions, same as all good dictators and tyrants do. At Yalta, think it was Yalta, Churchill remarked that God was on our side and stalin laughed, said he had the devil with him.
Mao starved about 40 million, stalin was not alone in his Evils , history is full of such devils.
I was in high school the same years, but NYC publik edumakashun and don't remember it, probably because it was never taught. Can't be having a different opinion, can we.

Yeah, Evil exists, we know.
I have to ask, did you go to school up north?
I bet you heard about the Holocaust though
"In my mid 50s... never heard of Holodomor until a couple years ago."
Same here. It was never mentioned in my school(s) in the Fifties and Sixties.
Went through high school 99-03, it was NOT taught, not even mentioned.
Can you imagine how many more things aren't being taught anymore?
