Beadwork from Odessa
Abstract The unexpected custody of a family heirloom leads to the unearthing of women’s family history that is intertwined with the idealistic pursuit of Jewish utopian agricultural communes among Ashkenazi communities facing Russian pogroms. Examines the challenges facing the process of unearthing obscured ethnic American history from family heirlooms.
