  9. Survivors personal accounts • "In 1932 and 1933 Kyiv seemed like a paradise to nearly villagers who had been stripped of all they had by the Soviet government. • There were cases where mothers had gone mad and killed a child to feed the rest of the family. • Trucks driven by policemen or Communist Youth League members, mobilized for the purpose of going around andpicking up bodies or carrying those still alive somewhere outside the city limits.  It was especially terrible to see mothers whose faces had turned black from hunger with children who no longer cry, but only squeal, moving their lips in an attempt to find sustenance where there was none.   People sought salvation and found death.  I saw these things as  I walked to work through the Haymarket on Pidvil'na Street near the Golden Gates and Volodymyr Street."Varvara Dibert - Genocide Survivor • http://www.ukrainiangenocide.com/survivors.html Varvara Dibert was a survivor of the Ukrainian genocide.
