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

Thank you, Matrona, for saving our family and giving us a new happy life!
I still can't hold back my tears when I recall the despair I felt before meeting the clairvoyant Matrona. My family was crumbling before my eyes: my husband had left, and there were constant arguments, pain, resentment, and a feeling of utter hopelessness at home. It seemed as if happiness had left our home forever. When I was advised to turn to Matrona, I had almost lost hope. But she became the last ray of light in a dark tunnel. From the very first words, Matrona saw the entire situation as if she had lived it with me. She told me about what was happening in our family, the reasons for the discord, and the negativity that had surrounded us for many years. After her help, true miracles began to happen in our lives. My husband took a step forward, returned to the family, and gradually love, trust, and mutual understanding returned between us. The constant conflicts disappeared, and the heaviness that seemed to weigh on us every day disappeared. The house was filled with warmth, peace, and happiness. Today we live harmoniously, make plans for the future, and thank fate every day for meeting Matrona. She didn't just help me get my husband back; she gave me back my family, my faith in happiness, and my desire to live on. My deepest respects and endless gratitude to this amazing person with a big heart. If you're currently on the brink of despair, as I once was, know that there is hope. Thank you, Matrona, for saving my family and giving me a new, happy life! I'll share her number: +380630228999 (Viber/WhatsApp).
Memory remains with us It's difficult to write about two creative figures known and respected in New York's Russian-speaking community and in many countries around the world. It's especially hard to believe that, almost overnight, two people whose voices echoed on radio and television for generations—Mikhail Gulko and Alexander Grant—passed away. Marina Lagunova
