Dear Friends,
Don't we all know that there are always 2-- sides to every story and History is written by the victors. Personally, I found this true story posted below to be extremely interesting because it touches upon another time and place that affected my own people, the "Volga-Germans" -- some of whom migrated LEGALLY to the USA many years ago to become super patriots, also joining our American armed forces and fighting in America's wars and conflicts through out history. We were wheat farmers for centuries and moved to places where contracts were drawn up between trusting, honorable parties/ countries.
Throughout history deals, pacts, agreements and marriages were arraigned so that peace would be in everyone's best interest. But many times things and fortunes change and the winds of war take over and move people around. There was a German Princess named Katherine the Great who married the Russian Czar and of course she moved to Russia, her new home. I am sure that there are many romantic stories woven into history, but there was also a mass migration at that time of thousands of ethnic Germans into a part of Russia that had fertile land suitable for growing wheat and so that is where my ancestors relocated under a written agreement, and things went well for a while... until war broke out many years later and some of our Germans were drafted, illegally, into the Russian Navy and Army. So, many of those ethnic Germans decided to move away to regain their freedom, and many chose to come to America. Of course, their skills and inherited occupations were mainly agricultural/ wheat farmers, and so many journeyed to Kansas to farm.
My father came from a large family of German Catholic people of 13 in number, near the town of Hays, Kansas. Five of the boys joined the Army and my Dad joined the Navy serving in WW-2. It was no different than any other group of people in a large country when hard economic times forces families to move to where the work and jobs are better, even moving to other States, etc. And the ethnic Germans and other nationalities in Europe were attracted to the Freedoms and Liberties in America, jobs, rich soil to grow crops and raise families, etc.
So, too, is the story of South Africa, and I know that there were atrocities committed by Whites moving into and taking over land that belonged to the Black natives already living there for many centuries -- but things can change and reverse themselves in time, and so now they are doing just that. No one likes to hear about genocide, but that is what's going on right now over there... but this time the Blacks are butchering the White farmers and families. Russia is welcoming some of those farmers into their country.
When a new Black Mayor -- Harold Washington, took over in the city of Chicago many years ago, they had Black corruption instead of White corruption... and nothing really changes. 'Man has dominated man -- to his injury.' And God sees it all.
What do you think about this story?
Warm Regards,
Tom Schuckman

Escaping with their lives. I read last year very poor whites have little or no hope of emigration.
