  The 1960s was a tumultuous period in this country's history by any measure, with the Civil Rights Movement taking center stage. The social and political unrest that defined this era provided a turbulent backdrop for a burgeoning friendship between two families: one black - the Sims, and one white - the Davids. Their compelling story unfolds via heartfelt correspondence and acts of genuine kindness untainted by prejudice. The ensuing publicity would cast a much-needed spotlight on discrimination, but also call into question their motives and deeds. Despite this, the Sims and Davids forged a fellowship, through benevolence and strength of faith, that served as a beacon of hope for all who would strive for racial harmony.

  The Cherokee are among the native tribes of the United States' Southeastern Woodlands. They resided in communities along river valleys in what's now southwestern North Carolina, southeastern Tennessee, the limits of western South Carolina, northern Georgia, and northeastern Alabama just before the 18th century. 
  Cherokee belongs to the Iroquoian language family. One oral legend tells of the people moving south in age-old times from the Great Lakes area, where other Iroquoian-speaking tribes were based, according to James Mooney, an early American ethnographer.

  Jewish Language and Literature -...

  The origins of Jewish language and literature are deeply intertwined with the history of the Jewish people, shaped by centuries of cultural exchange, migration, and adaptation. At the heart of Jewish literary tradition lies the Hebrew language, whose roots stretch back to the ancient world. Hebrew, as the language of the Bible, forms the foundation of Jewish thought, identity, and religious practice. The earliest examples of Hebrew literature can be found in the sacred texts of the Torah, where the stories, laws, and teachings of the Jewish people are recorded. These texts, passed down through generations, have remained central to Jewish life and continue to be a source of literary and theological inspiration. 
  In addition to Hebrew, other languages played an important role in the development of Jewish language and literature. Aramaic, a Semitic language closely related to Hebrew, became widespread during the Babylonian exile and remained influential for centuries. Aramaic is the language of significant portions of the Talmud and other rabbinic writings, shaping Jewish legal and philosophical thought. Over time, Jewish communities across the globe adopted the languages of the regions they inhabited, which further contributed to the diversity of Jewish literary expression. 
  The emergence of Yiddish, a language born in the Jewish communities of Eastern Europe, marked a significant shift in Jewish linguistic and literary culture. Yiddish, a Germanic language enriched with Hebrew, Aramaic, and Slavic elements, became the vernacular of millions of Ashkenazi Jews. It allowed for the creation of a vibrant body of literature, including plays, novels, and poetry, that expressed the daily lives, struggles, and aspirations of Jewish communities. Yiddish literature flourished in the 19th and early 20th centuries, with writers such as Sholem Aleichem, Isaac Bashevis Singer, and I.L. Peretz capturing the complexities of Jewish life through their works.

  A compilation of first-person accounts from German soldiers on their experiences at the Battle of Stalingrad during World War II, featuring rare photos. Real battles. Real Soldiers. Real stories.  By the fall of 1942, the battle for Stalingrad had become a fight for every street and building, and nowhere was the struggle more intense than in the bombed-out factories in the northern half of the city. There, amidst crumbled stone and twisted steel, German soldiers fought from room to room against a Soviet enemy who appeared never to tire. Meanwhile, Soviet offenses outside Stalingrad had trapped the German 6th Army inside the city. Erich von Manstein attempted to break through and relieve the encircled army, but to no avail. Both stories—the fierce battle for the factories and Manstein’s relief effort—are told here in the words of the men who were there.
