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

I want to tell you about my life... about how I got to know Martha.
Good afternoon. I want to tell you about my life... about how I met Martha. My life has never been easy. Everywhere you look, there’s a lot of experimentation: either there’s no money coming out of everything I need, then people are happy, they’re checking how much more I can get. My heart sank at the selfishness and feeling that no one needed me. It seemed that the darkness would never come, but would end with each day. And one time, when it seemed that I could see nothing else, my mother introduced me to the woman who had changed my life. Vaughn stretched out her hand to me when I fell into the middle, supported me in everything, in my life, in everyday difficulties and in my inner doubts. For the first time in a long time, I experienced warmth and a turbo that I had never expected in the world. With her help, I learned to trust people again and believe in goodness. My heart gradually filled with light, and I realized: in the dark days there is hope, after the greatest disappointments you can rise. Now I am strong, confident in myself and ready to hear new shouts from this year. This woman gave me not just help - she gave me faith in herself. And I know for sure: no matter how many difficulties lie ahead, I can overcome them, because now I’m not on my own. I’ll leave her number +380931150260 Viber / WhatsApp / Telegram
I suffered from failure for a long time, and everything I did always ended in failure. I decided to consult a clairvoyant, and she discovered a curse on my family line, passed down from generation to generation. She performed a powerful ritual to remove the family curse, and soon real changes began to occur in my life. My work increased, my relationships improved, and old problems disappeared. I am very grateful for her help. Contact number: +16463779379.
For a long time I was timid to see what I didn’t know anymore. She laughed in public and saw everything as good, if in the middle everything was screaming. I don’t feel anyone. Not bothering anyone, as I fall asleep with the phone by my hand, hoping for information. I’m throwing myself away and first, I’m looking for something, but there’s nothing. Not in calls, not in dreams, not in life. He just... knew. No explanation. Without drain. And most importantly, I don’t want to share this knowledge with anyone. What should I say? Why do I love someone who never said goodbye? I found out about Martha when I was already giving up. I wish I had thrown my name away. I didn't believe it. Already at night, if I had cut the merry again, I wrote. Just like that. Without refreshment. And she confirmed it. Calm down. M'yako. Exactly. You haven’t lost your mind, she said. You just love. It’s not worth it for you to die in this love. Give me three days. And I gave it. On the fourth day I woke up and in the notifications it was: Can I come? I need you to help me. Vin. The one who knows. The one I checked. Priyshov. And marveling at me like that, nothing happened. I don’t know what she earned. I don’t know what to do with her. But I know: there’s a charge over there. It's dark there. It's more painful there. Vaughn can smell it. And when you think it’s over, you just whisper: No. Whole cob.
