Grishka, you're right. It was Stower who wondered what the color white symbolized. In this case, the question is as easy as it looks. My apologies to Stower. Grishka, must be your ethnic handle caught my eye.

White Russians. And that's a song about cossacks- Zaporozhian, Don, same difference. Cossacks are not really Russian or Ukrainian. Cossacks come from Cossacks. A lot of people believe that the Holodomor was a campaign of genocide against the Ukrainian people perpetrated by the Russians. That's not really true. It was a campaign of genocide aimed at the Cossacks and was concentrated in the Cossack held territories in both Russian and Ukraine. They had been the main opposition to the Red Army and the feeling was that they needed to be crushed once and for all.

This is a very old folk song. As you can see, the audience all know it. Nazar turned it into folk rock. I like the guitar. Sounds like Edge. In fact Nazar might be the Ukrainian Bono :-)))

Again, I apologize for changing the subject. It is kind of rude and annoying isn't it? So I'll stay right on topic from now on. Promise.
Wouldn't want to be a bad catter now would I?
