Photograph of Jewish Schoolchildren by Roman Vishniac
Jewish schoolchildren, ca. 1935–1938. Vishniac took this photograph during a visit to a Jewish education center in Mukačevo in southwest Ukraine. Mukačevo, like many other towns in the former Pale of Settlement, had a large Jewish population; in many of these towns, Jews constituted the majority.

The resources I’m getting from my colleagues through Facing History have been just invaluable.
