Ukrainians have mobilized to include the word “Holodomor” and its definition in major English-language dictionaries, including Oxford, Merriam-Webster and Dictionary.com, as a start for this effort. According to Deeptruth.ca, the broader goal of this initiative is to “help raise awareness of the Holodomor, increase the number of countries that recognize it as an act of genocide, and unmask the truth about modern-day genocides that continue to be perpetrated around the world today.” Currently, Ukraine and 15 other countries recognize the Holodomor as genocide.
