To the National Poetry Reading Week, which this year will take place from March 17 to 23, poems by little-known poets of the Executed Renaissance within the framework of the #unreadable_poems project, implemented by the Charitable Foundation "MHP-Hromadi", appeared on the MEGOGO platform, UNN reports.
Details
#unreadable_poems is an initiative of the Charitable Foundation "MHP-Hromadi", implemented jointly with the publication "Ukrainska Pravda". Within the framework of the project, it was possible to return the voice of unfairly forgotten artists of the 1930s: Maik Yohansen, Ladi Mohylianska, Amdi Hiraybay, Leonid Chernov, and others. For this, famous writers, musicians, actors, volunteers (Serhiy Zhadan, Dasha Tregubova, Andriy Isayenko, Tata Kepler, Sevgil Musaieva) recorded their poems, and the project team formatted the audio recordings into podcasts. They are available on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcast, and now also on MEGOGO.
To truly make the voices of little-known poets heard, the authors of "Unread Poems" launched a flash mob on social networks. Its essence is that users listen to or read a poem by one of the poets, and then post their own interpretation on their accounts in video, audio, or simply text format. The flash mob has already been joined by film actress and TV presenter Dasha Tregubova; writer, musician, serviceman Serhiy Zhadan; actor Andriy Isayenko; creative director of the culinary direction of MHP and chef Alik Mkrtchyan; blogger and philologist Maria Slovolyub, film and theater actress Olena Olar; theater and film actor Serhiy Kysil and dozens of others.
"Every day, residents of communities where our Foundation has been working for 10 years are actively joining the flash mob: from local schoolchildren to library staff. Our employees and charitable partner organizations also read poems. This once again demonstrates: we still have many pages of unstudied and uncomprehended history, for the acceptance and reflection of which Ukrainians have a great demand," emphasizes Oleksandr Pakholyuk, director of the Charitable Foundation "MHP-Hromadi", who supported the flash mob by reading Oleksa Vlyzko's poem "The Last of the Mohicans".
For the National Poetry Reading Week, to give the flash mob new momentum, #unreadable_poems were uploaded to another of the largest Ukrainian OTT services – MEGOGO. There, Ukrainians can listen to poems for free in the "audio" section and then share them on their social networks. Poems can be listened to in the MEGOGO mobile application, as well as in cars with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto audio systems. This combination of business and charitable projects is an important step in restoring historical justice.
"We strive for the best content to be available to Ukrainians – this applies not only to sports or cinema, but also to our cultural heritage. By joining the #unreadable_poems initiative, MEGOGO helps to return the voice of unfairly forgotten poets. This is our common opportunity to bring the poets of the Executed Renaissance closer to every Ukrainian," the media service's press service noted.
