This is an automatically translated description
This book is an online blog diary that the author started during the Euromaidan. After talking to two medical volunteers on Bankova Street on 1 December, journalist Kristina Berdinskikh wrote the first story about them on her private social media page. When the gas went out on Bankova Street, these guys ran to provide first aid.
The author met wonderful people like these medics on Maidan every day. Modest and at the same time stubborn and desperate, with different levels of income and education. Some from the West of Ukraine, some from the East. For some reason, the media paid less attention to ordinary people, and they were the energy and spirit of these events. On 20 December, Kristina created a Facebook page called 'People of Maidan', where she started posting stories about Maidan participants and their photos taken with a mobile phone camera. She spoke to wealthy businessmen who supplied firewood and tyres to the Maidan, construction workers, students, volunteers, hotline coordinators, those working in kitchens and living in tents, artists, musicians, and cultural figures. In January and February, hundreds of volunteers translated these stories into 17 languages. People wanted the world to know who really stood on Maidan. The diary "People" contains entries about death and injuries, pain and sadness, but also about mutual assistance, strength and courage, inspiration and love. I would like these stories to remain not only on the Internet, but also in the memory of the readers of this book.
