Dushenko Papers

back of postcardStepan Dushenko was a contributor to Svit molodi, a supplement to Zhinocha dolia, a women's magazine published in Koloyia from 1925 to 1939. After the Second World War, Dushenko immigrated to the United States, where he contributed regularly to the Ukrainian periodicals Vilne slovo and Narodna volya. The papers contain correspondence with Ukrainian community, political, and military leaders. Several of Dushenko's correspondents were closely involved with the Ukrainian National Republic. Others were involved with Ukrainian community organizations in North America. The collection overall is a good source for the study of Ukrainian history and politics from 1917 to 1921, and post-World War II émigré life in the United States.
