Dear Editor of Washington Post:

The suggestion that Shevchenko's monument be torn down on the basis that he represents allegedly antisemitic, pro- Bolshevik or anti-Polish sentiment can only originate from a completely uninformed person. Either that or its sources may reflect the most virulent and obnoxious Ukrainophobia that is presently sweeping America. Even a modest bit of research would reveal these accusations to be propagandistic and not factual in nature.
