{{Box-round|title=Romaticizes UPA|titlebackground=#ffee00|border=#000000| This song romanticizes the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA), a Ukrainian paramilitary group tied to OUN-B during the Second World War. The history of the group is contested in popular memory. Some remember them positively as a force that fought for Ukraine’s independence at great personal cost. Others remember them as a radical right-wing group responsible for carrying out large-scale ethnic cleansing in the course of their efforts to establish an independent state. The history of the organization and that time period is painful, difficult, and complex.<br/><br/>
{{Box-round|title=Idolizes UPA|titlebackground=#ffee00|border=#000000| This song idolizes UPA, a Ukrainian paramilitary group in WWII. They are often viewed positively as a force which fought for Ukraine's independence, but the group was also extremely fascist and committed grave atrocities, including murdering tens of thousands of civilians - Polish, Jewish, and Ukrainian. We don't think this song is so bad that it shouldn't ever be sung, but consider teaching a more balanced history about UPA. {{#if: {{{1|}}} | <br/><br/> {{{1}}} |}}}}
 
We don’t believe this song is so bad that it should never be sung, but we do ask that a more balanced history of the organization be taught and that our community remember that we could have been both the oppressed and the oppressors.
