Everyone has already forgotten, and in fact a little less than a month ago the whole country celebrated Victory Day, and those who did not celebrate, still enjoyed the charms or grumbled at the inconvenience of an extra day off.
And at the same time on Habré
was the project "
Do not forget " - a startup dedicated to the theme of the Great Patriotic War: newsreels and video clips, photos, eyewitness accounts. That post, as one would expect, gathered a certain number of advantages, but also a lot of comments that this is a one-day project: they say, they will forget it and forget it. Do not forget. The first month of the project's work has passed, and it not only has not died out, but is also gaining momentum.
Way to victory
As planned, the project almost immediately went offline. Right now, in the midst of the city game "Way to victory" (thematic analogue of the famous "Watch", the story of which was
here ), in which more than 1000 people participate (I wonder how many of them came from Habr? If there are any, respond in the comments .) On June 10, there will be a debriefing, and on the 18th, the winners will be awarded. Missed? It's okay, there will be another opportunity to participate next year.

On Poklonnaya Hill
And this Saturday, June 5, the project “Do not forget” brought people to the action of memory on Poklonnaya - a rally, laying flowers at the Eternal Flame and an excursion to the Museum of the Great Patriotic War.
About fifty people gathered, and these were all people who came on their own initiative - not “patriots” who were brought by buses from the regions, but those who think that it’s necessary to remember the memory of the fallen not only on official dates.
Our people
Since the project is designed for young people, it didn’t go without celebrities - yes, the site has already received its share of caustic criticism because
Nikita Malinin or
Lera Ranetka talk about the Great Patriotic War. Among the participants of the action on June 5, there were also celebrities - MC Dino, Chelsea group, T9 group. But, on the other hand, they have their own audience, and if they are listened to, let them speak. It is not without their help
that the VKontakte project group has grown this month to 23,000 participants and continues to grow.
After all, the main thing is not to forget.
