Her great-great-grandparents, the Sinykins, and their six children fled antisemitism in Russia and arrived in the United States at the turn of the 20th century, ultimately settling on a 160-acre homestead in South Dakota. Over the next few decades, despite tough years on a merciless prairie and multiple setbacks, the Sinykins became an American immigrant success story. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhat none of Clarren's ancestors ever mentioned was that their land, the foundation for much of their wealth, had been cruelly taken from the Lakota by the United States government. By the time the Sinykins moved to South Dakota, America had broken hundreds of treaties with hundreds of Indigenous nations across the continent, and the land that had once been reserved for the seven bands of the Lakota had been diminished, splintered, and handed for free, or practically free, to white settlers. In \u003ci\u003eThe Cost of Free Land\u003c\/i\u003e, Clarren melds investigative reporting with personal family history to reveal the intertwined stories of her family and the Lakota, and the devastating cycle of loss of Indigenous land, culture, and resources that continues today. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith deep empathy and clarity of purpose, Clarren grapples with the personal and national consequences of this legacy of violence and dispossession. What does it mean to survive oppression only to perpetuate and benefit from the oppression of others?

In its long, final era, Leslie Wexner of The Limited expanded the store's reach and solicited younger clients, emphasizing jewelry, accessories, and dazzle.

Yet amid such darkness, there were glimmers of light--courageous individuals who risked everything to save those hunted by the Nazis. Today, as bigotry and intolerance and the threats of fascism and authoritarianism are ascendent once again, these heroes' little-known stories--among the most remarkable in human history--resonate powerfully. Yad Vashem, the Holocaust Memorial in Jerusalem, has recognized more than 27,000 individuals as \"Righteous Among the Nations\"--non-Jewish people such as Raoul Wallenberg and Oskar Schindler who risked their lives to save their persecuted neighbors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eIn the Garden of the Righteous\u003c\/em\u003e chronicles extraordinary acts at a time when the moral choices were stark, the threat immense, and the passive apathy of millions predominated. Deeply researched and astonishingly moving, it focuses on ten remarkable stories, including that of the circus ringmaster Adolf Althoff and his wife Maria, the Portuguese diplomat Aristides de Sousa Mendes, the Italian cycling champion Gino Bartali, the Polish social worker Irena Sendler, and the Japanese spy Chinue Sugihara, who provided hiding places, participated in underground networks, refused to betray their neighbors, and secured safe passage. They repeatedly defied authorities and risked their lives, their livelihoods, and their families to save the helpless and the persecuted.

Bringing her ancestors to life, the author shares the stories of five immigrant Jewish families who shape Seattle's early years, its retail culture and Seattle's gilded age. In this delightful book, Karen Treiger places herself in the long arc of history and invites the reader to join her time travel. The story telling is masterful as she describes the origin of each family who emigrated to the United States from central and eastern Europe between 1874 and 1913. It's full of tales, both funny and tragic, about ancestors that she knew and those that she didn't. Seattle grew from a small ramshackle town with dirt roads to a bustling metropolis with the Space Needle as our symbol. This book tells Seattle's history through the eyes of Jewish merchants who settled in the Pacific Northwest with hopes and dreams for themselves and especially their children. These families transformed Seattle's Jewish community and shaped Seattle's retail culture.
