SUMMARY:Triff ein Opfer des DDR-Geheimdienstes | Meet a Victim of the GDR Secret Service
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, May 21 on Zoom\n\n11:00 AM (Chicago) | 18:00 (Germany)\n[This event will be presented in German]\n\nTeilnehmer bekommen die Zoom Link per Email 1-2 Tage vor dem Event.\n\nAm 13. Februar 1988 entschließt sich der damals 31-jährige Dresdner Harry Schulz zu einer Demonstration zu gehen\, die an die Zerstörung Dresdens am Ende des Zweiten Weltkrieges erinnert. Er hält ein Plakat mit der Aufschrift: “Nie Wieder so ein Inferno\, aber Freiheit für andersdenkende Menschen.”\n\nInnerhalb von zwei Minuten verhaftet ihn der DDR-Geheimdienst. Nach 12 Stunden Verhör wird er in die Untersuchungshaftanstalt der Staatssicherheit (Stasi) in der Bautzner Straße in Dresden gebracht und nur 19 Tage später vor Gericht gestellt. Das “Schnellverfahren” ergibt als Urteil ein Jahr\, das er im Strafvollzug verbringt.\n\nAm Samstag\, dem 21. Mai dieses Jahres\, mehr als 30 Jahre nach diesem Vorfall\, laden die Gedenkstätte Bautzner Straße Dresden und das DANK Haus German American Cultural Center Chicago dazu ein\, den ehemaligen Untersuchungshäftling kennen zu lernen und ihm persönlich Fragen über seine Inhaftierung Zeit und Leben in der DDR zu stellen.\n\nCost: Free\n\nLearn more: https://dankhaus.com/event-4803186

SUMMARY:“Chinese Brothers\, American Sons” Book Talk with Author Ed Shew
DESCRIPTION:The Chinese American Museum of Chicago (CAMOC) is pleased to host this FREE book talk with Ed Shew\, author of the historical novel Chinese Brothers\, American Sons. Register here.\n\nTwo Chinese brothers arrive in America in 1854 on a death ship to escape poverty and oppression in China. Li Chang and Li Yu\, ten years younger\, search for Gold Mountain in the historical novel\, Chinese Brothers\, American Sons. Fighting the inhumanity and discrimination of the West\, they work perilously to drive in the Golden Spike in 1869 and become inspirational builders of the first Transcontinental Railroad and this country.\n\nFrom the author\n“It’s the story of two Cantonese brothers who along with tens of thousands of men from southern China conquer the back-breaking construction of the Transcontinental Railroad in the 1860s\, the tunnels through the granite of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. No first-hand account describing the life of a Chinese railroad worker of the Transcontinental Railroad has ever been found. Historians have searched this nation and the winding road back to China\, to the roots of these forgotten\, invisible men. Many were literate\, yet not a scrap of their writing remains. As a Chinese American\, my goal is to tell this little-known story of these brave adventurers.”   – Ed Shew
