#polish ukrainians

[actuallytruevolchek]

I have developed a strange hobby of creating flag designs for ethnic groups and religions.

Here are some examples: Ukrainians, Polish Ukrainians (Ukrainians in Poland), Omnism, Russian Americans (Russians in the United States), Chukchi, Wicca and Hutsul.

What other ethnic groups or religions should we make flags for?

The "Americanization of the global internet" post and slow deterioration of local native culture gave me an idea: many users don't even know there is native language communities on this website, so if you know of a regional group/"subculture" on Tumblr, reblog/comment with the tags they use so people can find them and connect with other folks from their countries or speakers of a language they'd like to learn

I will try to update this post with every new addition to hopefully make a comprehensive list of Tumblr regional communities

Edit July 29th: the post has reached a point where Tumblr won't let me add any more links, so from now on all tags are plain text to make it fair

The list so far:

The Ukrainian Cossack Hero

Piotr, a very talented Polish artist, who I have a pleasure knowing personally (and who has no Tumblr or other social media account), agreed to draw Jurko Bohun specially for this blog. For the time, I can't draw him by myself. Pencils & charcoal on paper.

The Polish hero, Jan Skrzetuski, is coming soon to accompany him...

Cat, chat, Katze, kat

The origin of the word cat is unknown. There are similar words in many related languages, such as French chat, Welsh cath, and Polish kot, but also in unrelated languages, e.g. Arabic qiṭṭa and Turkish kedi. However, none of these languages can be identified as the source language. See the infographic to learn more about it.

Dark and mysterious, bright and mournful - the paintings of the Polish-Ukrainian artist Wilhelm Kotarbiński corresponded to the decadent spirit of the Fin de siècle period, where the future was ghostly and unknown, and the present was full of anxiety. I think this is what most Ukrainians feel now, including me. But despite this, we can still enjoy the beauty of life, a part of which I want to give to my followers.

• 7 meshes by sforzcc, edited and recolored by me. You don't need meshes, but I highly recommend to check out the original set for more amazing paintings. • 41 paintings in square, horizontal and vertical formats • Golden and wooden frames for each painting (82 swatches in general) • Tested by @swallowprettybird 💖

P.S.: Can somebody tell russians to stop claiming something/someone as 'their' just because it accidentally trapped into their territory (especially considering the fact that it was Ukraine). P.S.S: For god's sake, it's Kyiv, not Kiev 😭

today the russian ambassador in Poland was supposed to lay flowers at the Soviet Military Cementary in Warsaw, so this is what had been prepared for him to see before the entrance:

from what i understand, he laid the flowers before this whole installation, without even entering the cementery.

Someone with a Stalin pfp posting this is brutally ironic, since the Bund was forcibly disbanded in 1921 by the Bolsheviks and a great deal of former Bundists met with grim fates at the hands of the Soviets:

David Petrovsky, Mikhail Liber, Fanny Nyurina, Isaak Nusinov, Yakov Bykin, Yakov Drobnis, Joseph Meerzon, Isaak Illich Rubin, Moisey Rukhimovich, Mikhail Mednikov, Moshe Gutman, Mark Donskoy, Abram Merezhin, Aleksandr Zolotarev, and Israel Leplevsky were all shot during the Purges.

Victor Alter and Henryk Ehrlich were both shot on Stalin's orders.

Aron Sokolovsky, Mikhail Borodin, Isaak Goldstein, Anna Rozental, Aron Vainshtein, Moisei Natanovich Gurvich, and Moisei Rafes died in the GULAG or Sovet prison.

Samuil Agurskii died in Soviet exile.

Zakhar Grinberg died in Soviet prison after being beaten to death.

To be fair, though, Polish Bundists often did not fare much better.

Simon Dubnow, Mordechai Gebirtig, Michał Klepfisz, Pati Kremer, Maurycy Orzech, Aron Skrobek, and Abraham Blum were all murdered by the Nazis and Szmul Zygielbojm committed suicide to protest the apathy of the Western Allies and Polish government in exile with regard to the Holocaust.

Józef Brandt (1841-1915), a renowned Polish artist, was fascinated with the Ukrainian Cossacks and created pictures of them throughout his life:

Zaporozhian Cossacks after the Battle (Zaporożcy po bitwie) or Return of the Victors (Powrót zwycięzców), oil on canvas, 155.5 cm x 98.4 cm, 1892.

Actually, in a private collection in Chicago (USA).
