Ivan Chornousov

Ivan Yakovych Chornousov (Ukrainian: Іван Якович Чорноусов) was a participant in the Russian Civil War on the territories of what is now Kyiv and Poltava Oblasts in Ukraine. He is known for his fight against communists,[1] that he believed supported or took part in the establishment of the power of the Soviet government on the territories of the emerging Ukrainian Republic from 1917 to 1923.[2] Known as Chornyi Voron (from Ukrainian: Чорний Ворон, transl. "Black Raven"), he is a controversial figure; some consider him to be a national hero, others consider him to be a bandit and murderer.[1]
