KUBAN UKRAINIZATION INITIAL STATE IN THE KUBAN EMERGENCY PARLIAMENT MEETING MATERIALS

Abstract

The article is devoted to the initial stage of Ukrainization in the Kuban, which consisted mainly of a purposeful and consistent introduction of the Ukrainian language and culture into the life of the population. After the February 1917 events in Russia, various national movements, where they were present, sharply intensified. In particular, the Cuban-Ukrainian movement in the Kuban also became more active. Initially, measures for this implementation were planned to be implemented in the sphere of education, mainly school. At the first stage it was spontaneous, at the initiative of the inhabitants of some localities, but with the support of the Kuban Territorial and legislative rads. The Kuban Parliament, immediately after its formation in March 1917, announced to the Provisional Government its plans to create an extensive network of Ukrainian schools, to use the Ukrainian language more widely, to promote its implementation in church services.
