*********************************************************************

Then, beginning in December, coordinating their efforts and resources, 
the Ukrainian Congress Committee of America, Brooklyn Ukrainian Group, 
Columbia University Ukrainian Studies Program, and Shevchenko Scientific 
Society present “Race for the Rada”, a series of monthly discussions on 
hot, election-related topics leading up to Ukraine's March 2006 
parliamentary elections.  Anticipated topics for discussion and debate 
include:

-- The importance or triviality of the Ukrainian language for the 
electorate;

-- The influence of artists, celebrities, and writers during the Orange 
Revolution and leading up to the Parliamentary elections

-- The influence of Russia and other outside forces on Ukraine’s elections;

-- Up-to-date analysis by political pundits immediately before the 
parliamentary elections about what can be expected to take place during 
and after the vote; and,

-- Ukrainian Congress Committee of America orientation for International 
Election Observers.

Detailed information about the time and location of each discussion 
event will be provided in advance of each event.

A portion of the proceeds from these events will go towards 
administrative costs associated with sending election observers to the 
March 2006 Parliamentary elections in Ukraine, via the Ukrainian 
Congress Committee of America’s non-partisan election monitoring effort.

Yes, in fact, RAZOM NAS BAHATO!
