I attended a local candlelight vigil for #Ukraine this evening. It was very poorly publicized and drew only 50-60 people. The same group’s 2022 vigil at this spot drew over 400 people. I felt badly for the Ukrainian folks who attended both events and fear that they may see this as a loss of interest and commitment from the American people. #SlavaUkrainii
@cassandra17lina well, if you happen to see any of the Ukrainian folks around please let them know there are still a lot of us who think about them and the people of Ukraine like every single day. We have not forgotten at all.
@Billibatt exactly right. I blame the organizers who could have leveraged their connections with other local groups to publicize the event. Instead, they placed a small write up in the newspaper that came out a day before the event.
