<p>Join us on Greek Independence Day for a discussion of the little-known history of Greeks in the Soviet Union. From long-established Black Sea communities to refugees of revolution and war, Greek populations played a complex role in Soviet history. This talk explores periods of cultural autonomy, repression, deportation, and survival under Stalin and beyond. We will examine how Greek identity was reshaped under Soviet ideology and how these experiences continue to shape diaspora memory today. The story of Soviet Greeks offers a powerful case study in nationalism, minority life, and the costs of ideological rule.</p>
