Demonstration on Brighton Beach: when politics divides destinies
On May 9, for many years in a row, New Yorkers gathered on Brighton Beach to remember their relatives and heroes who died during World War II. And on May 9, 2024, when the holiday began to be called the Day of Remembrance and Sorrow, the day was overshadowed by a provocative demonstration that caused a storm of emotions among Russian-speaking and Ukrainian-speaking residents of the area. The events of recent years related to the war in Ukraine have left a deep imprint in the hearts of many, especially those who have roots in both Russia and Ukraine. Ukrainians fled the war, seeking to protect their lives and the future of their families. Russian-speaking residents who find themselves outside of Russia are forced to face circumstances related to their country's participation in the conflict. In this context, holding a demonstration with a red flag, which featured a hammer and sickle, in Brighton, where there is a significant number of Russian-speaking and Ukrainian-speaking residents, and it is not surprising that Ukrainians stood in Brighton, next to CHASE Bank, with placards and waited for the Russian-speaking delegation. For Ukrainians, and not only others, the red flag is a symbol reminiscent of the terrible consequences of the war in their homeland, while for Russian speakers it can evoke painful memories of the war that divided peoples. Many believe that holding such events on such a day and in such an area of New York only causes pain and discord among residents. However, despite this incident, May 9 remains a symbol of unity and memory, when every family, be it Ukrainian, Russian or any other, remembers its heroes, paying tribute to those who fell in the fight for freedom and peace, stopping fascism. I hope that in the future, the people of Brighton Beach will be able to come together again in peace and harmony, regardless of political differences. Marina Lagunova

My wife, who is twenty years younger than me, left the family with our daughter, succumbing to pressure from her mother. This was my second marriage, and unfortunately, my mother-in-law was categorically opposed to our relationship from the start. The situation seemed hopeless. Just when I had lost all hope, I turned to the magician Alexander. I sent him a WhatsApp message at +380971792179 and arranged for a diagnosis. Alexander didn't ask any questions and asked me not to reveal anything. I was so impressed when he told me everything, right down to names and other details no one else could know! I literally begged him to help me. Alexander agreed to carry out the necessary work. And the results were immediate. Less than a month later, my wife returned to me. I remember how she walked into the house, put down her bag, and our daughter ran to me as fast as she could and hugged me tightly. And at that moment, I knew I had won. And then came another surprise. My mother-in-law, who constantly turned my wife against me, suddenly reversed her behavior and gave us an apartment, which we now rent out. She said we deserved happiness and wanted to make amends, and the extra rent wouldn't hurt. I'm still in shock and can't wrap my head around it. Alexander truly works miracles! That's why I recommend everyone contact him if they need help.
