The Met doubles down on support for Ukraine [View all]
While Shitler is busy trashing the Kennedy Center by having it reflect his hideous taste, the Met is showing the way.
I came across the phenomenon on Instagram.
"The Metropolitan Opera is doubling down on its support for Ukraine. On March 3, 2025 during the opening night performance of Moby Dick the company performed the Ukrainian National Anthem."
Interesting review from Opera Wire:
"First off, lets take a moment to recognize that Gelb has been involved in some truly positive initiatives to support the people of Ukraine during a three-year period in which their lands have been stolen from them by a dictatorial aggressor. For those who seemed to forget (and the current U.S. administration seems hellbent on making us forget) Russia started the war. Russia invaded Ukraine. And at this moment, Ukraine is up against its greatest challenge as the Donald Trump administration abandons its people in concordance with Vladimir Putins demands. So supporting the people of Ukraine is important. Over the course of history, art is often the great equalizer and initiatives like the Ukrainian Freedom Orchestra certainly make the world a better and freer place."
