When a young Eva Kollisch arrives as a refugee in New York in 1940, she finds a community among socialists who share her values and idealism. She soon discovers ‘the cause’ isn’t as idyllic as it seems. Little does she know this is the beginning of a lifelong commitment to activism and her determination to create radical change in ways that include belonging, love and one's full self. In addition to Eva Kollisch’s memoirs Girl in Movement (2000) and The Ground Under My Feet (2014), LBI’s collections include an oral history interview with Eva conducted in 2014 and the papers of Eva’s mother, poet Margarete Kolllisch, which document Eva’s childhood experience on the Kindertransport.

Milwaukee Stands with Ukraine 2:50

19 days ago2:50

2:50

The song "Milwaukee Stands with Ukraine" was produced by Wisconsin Ukrainians Inc. for the "Third Annual Rally for Ukraine" and in commemoration of that somber milestone. "Мілуокі разом з Україною" Рідна земля у вогні і в сльозах, Вітер несе тільки смуток і жах. Я прокидаюсь — і тиша навкруг, Та чути підтримку далеких рук. Мілуокі, я чую, я серцем відчую, Як свічі палають в нічну непогоду. Коли ви зі мною, коли кличете знов, Я силу знаходжу, щоб йти крізь любов. Хтось стукає тихо, мов шепіт весни, «Ми поруч із вами, ви там не одні». Це має вагу у розбитім житті, Ваш голос — як промінь у чорній пітьмі. Мілуокі, я чую, я серцем відчую, Як свічі палають в нічну непогоду. Коли ви зі мною, коли кличете знов, Я силу знаходжу, щоб йти крізь любов. Вони, наче тіні, несуть тільки біль, Палають домівки, тремтить кожен стіл. Та ми не здамося, ми — сталь і вогонь, Бо правда веде нас у темну імлу. Мілуокі, я чую, я серцем відчую, Як свічі палають в нічну непогоду. Через моря ваша ласка летить, І силу дарує, щоб далі нам жить. "Milwaukee Stands with Ukraine" Torn is my homeland, the earth cries in pain, The winds carry whispers of sorrow again. I wake to the silence of those who are gone, But your voices remind me that I must go on. Milwaukee, I hear you, your kindness, your light, Like candles that glow through the depth of the night. When you stand by my side, when you call out my name, I gather my strength and rise once again. A knock at my door, a hand on my sleeve, A voice saying softly, “We stand, we believe.” This matters, I know, in a world torn apart, Your love is a shield wrapped around my heart. Milwaukee, I hear you, your kindness, your light, Like candles that glow through the depth of the night. When you stand by my side, when you call out my name, I gather my strength and rise once again. They come like shadows, with fire and chains, They shatter our homes, they poison our names. But we are still standing, we’ll never fall, With truth as our sword, we answer the call. Milwaukee, I hear you, your kindness, your light, Like candles that glow through the depth of the night. Across the great waters, your love reaches through, And I find my courage because of you.…
