Ep 5: Why so many Ukrainians used to speak r*ssian
It is known that most Ukrainians can speak r*ssian, while few r*ssians can speak Ukrainian. You'll find out how it happened and why we call our bilingualism unfortunate in this episode!

Wikipedia pages on linguicide of Ukrainian (https://uk.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9B%D1%96%D0%BD%D0%B3%D0%B2%D0%BE%D1%86%D0%B8%D0%B4_%D1%83%D0%BA%D1%80%D0%B0%D1%97%D0%BD%D1%81%D1%8C%D0%BA%D0%BE%D1%97_%D0%BC%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%B8) and the Executed/Shot Renaissance (https://uk.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A0%D0%BE%D0%B7%D1%81%D1%82%D1%80%D1%96%D0%BB%D1%8F%D0%BD%D0%B5_%D0%B2%D1%96%D0%B4%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%B4%D0%B6%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%BD%D1%8F) (google translate the Ukrainian articles because they provide more information than the English versions)
Also, this (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithuanian_press_ban) is how r*ssians tried to ban the Lithuanian alphabet (and failed)
