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.

Fortune teller reviews in New York

I'd like to share my experience with clairvoyant Emelie. I consulted her remotely, and she very accurately explained what was happening in my life and what the future held for me. Emelie helped me remove all the negativity and blocks that were preventing me from living a peaceful life. Afterwards, everything somehow became easier and new: I got a good job, met a man I'm happy with, and I simply feel harmony and self-confidence. All this without intimidation, only pure white magic and professional work. Ladies, if you need help, don't hesitate to contact her via Viber or WhatsApp: +380500147707.

When the soul finds no peace, when the heart is gripped by anxiety and pain, it's a sign that you need to seek answers. Clairvoyant Lilia helps where reason is powerless and where hope fades with each passing day. Through Tarot cards and the energy of photography, I see the truth that cannot be hidden. Even an old photograph bears the imprint of fate—from it, I can tell what's happening to a person, whether they're alive, whether they love you, whether they remember you, what they're feeling, and what intentions they're hiding. I sense lies, betrayal, estrangement, rivalry, deception—and I can reveal the truth to you, no matter how difficult it may be. If there's a wall of silence between you, if you feel your strength ebbing and your life losing meaning, I will help restore harmony. I will determine whether there is a curse, hex, love spell, or hex, who cast it, and when, and I will cleanse you—removing negativity, restoring energy, aligning your chakras, and providing powerful protection. After the ritual, you'll feel lightness, calm, and a desire to live and believe again. Tarot cards don't lie—they'll show you what lies ahead: whether love is worth fighting for, whether to trust someone, what your path will be, and where the twist of fate is that could change everything. I don't promise miracles—I help create them, because I'm born with power, and through it, I bring light, hope, and love back to people. Clairvoyant Lily. Tarot reading. Photo diagnostics. Negativity removal. I'll help you regain what seemed lost forever. Contacts: +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber) +19297133433

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.
