Youth - Description:
- Children's magazine Kinderland published by the Arbeter Ring. Contents this issue: The Second Song (or poem) of the Kingdom on the Other Side of the River, by Naftali Gross. Tsigele-Migele, by Chaver-Paver. Snow in May (poem), by Yitzkhok (Y.A.) Rontsh. The Story of Copper Mountain, by Moyshe Nadir. My Twin, and The Lonely Child, by schoolchildren in Chicago and Harlem Arbeter Ring schools. Riddles. News (unattributed), including a note on Morris Rosenfeld's death, and one on the coming of seven-year locusts. A photo of six school graduates, followed by more children's writing. The journal did not survive the tensions of the coming political schism between the Arbeter Ring (Workmen's Circle) and the Order. This is the last issue. Beginning in January 1930, the Ordn Shuln briefly published an unrelated magazine also titled Kinderland.
- Note:
- Naomi Prawer Kadar's book "Raising Secular Jews", notes that starting in mid 1922, and dramatically by February 1923, the Arbeter Ring journal Kinderland became less doctrinaire, and more sympathetic to Jewish themes under the sole editorship of Yisroel Shteynboym (Israel Steinbaum).
- Note:
- The Jewish People’s Fraternal Order was the largest ‘national’ section of the International Workers Order (IWO) which focused on cultural awareness and celebration, mutual support especially in health insurance coverage, and anti-fascist activities. The IWO also gave particular emphasis to supporting the rights and interests of African Americans.
