We (Never) Don’t Forget Germans from Russia in South America

ike North America before the turn of the 1900s, South America was a land of opportunity—a magnet of immigration from Europe and Asia. Many of these immigrants were directly related to Germans from Russia in the United States and Canada. They were a mixture of Black Sea Germans, Volga Germans, Volhynian Germans, Bessarabian Germans, and Mennonites.

This new television documentary from Prairie Public examines the history, language, music, religion, foodways, and culture of this ethnic group and chronicles how these traditions are flourishing across generations. Tune in for the television premiere on Thursday, September 24, at 7 pm or Sunday, September 27, at 6 pm CT.
