Oleksii Ivanovych Tykhy was a Ukrainian linguist, writer, and human rights activist who was one of the founders of the Ukrainian Helsinki Group. An activist from early in life, Tykhy was arrested twice on charges of anti-Soviet agitation for his activism against the Soviet invasion of Hungary and the Russification of Ukraine, and spent 17 years imprisoned before his death from stomach cancer in 1984. Since his death, he has been celebrated by other Ukrainian dissidents, such as Levko Lukianenko and Nadiya Svitlychna, for his efforts to preserve Ukraine's nationhood and strengthen human rights in the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic.
