Do you  understand the difference between “basic” information and inflammatory mudslinging?

Остановить насилие на Украине можно лишь признав мировым сообществом неонацистскую сущность путча

Note:

SEELANGS is allowing a vast number of political postings, on subjects ranging from Ukraine to Pussy Riot, in apparent violation of its guidelines:
"Please note that the discussion of discrete political matters is not welcome on SEELANGS. However, as political and other concerns have influenced Slavic Languages and Literatures, if posting on such a theme, use common sense and recognize when your contribution has ceased to be about aiding linguistic comprehension, and has begun to be purely political."

I think it's time either to stop these "солидарность с Майдном" postings, or to also post the other side of the story. We are talking about the possibility of World War III here, after all.

From:    "Ruder, Cynthia A" <Cynthia.Ruder at UKY.EDU>
Subject: Soviet Women in WWII

Dear Colleagues:

A former student is in the process of writing a graphic novel on Soviet Women in WWII. In particular, she is interested in any information that discusses women in auxiliary roles, such as laundresses, cooks, censors, telephone operators, and signalers.

To give you some sense of the information required, here are some of the questions for which she is seeking answers:  Were these women attached to or members of the military?  How were their day-to-day activities organized and by whom?  What were the motivations for their participation in the war effort?  Were they local women?  Were they evacuated only to return to the front?  Were they partisans and then moved into these jobs?   Were they supervised by other women?

Any information would be both useful and appreciated.  While Russian sources will likely be more numerous, the writer needs sources in English.

Please reply to me off list--cynthia.ruder at uky.edu-- with any Russian & English sources that might be useful.  Thank you in advance for your help.

Sincerely, Cindy Ruder
