Hope and Spirit
 The Hope & Spirit series is dedicated to the millions of victims of Soviet deportations--the men, women and children from all Soviet-occupied nations, and of all nationalities, religions, and races--who suffered two indignities: the brutality of forced exile, imprisonment, starvation, torture, and genocide and the injustice of the subsequent denial, minimization and suppression of their suffering and victimization.
In order to remember, and not to forget, the atrocities that were committed by Joseph Stalin, I have organized an extensive program of art and photography exhibits, a juried children's art exhibit, film screenings, book signings, lectures, and exhibits of original historical materials.
June 2011 is the 70th anniversary of the beginning of mass Soviet deportations of Lithuanians to Siberia. All totaled, more than 132,000 Lithuanians were deported to remote areas of the USSR including Siberia, the Arctic Circle and Central Asia. More than 70 percent of the deportees were women and children. By the end of the deportations, some 30,000 Lithuanians had died as a result of slave work and starvation. In addition more than 150,000 were sent to Gulags, USSR Siberian concentration camps. Those who survived deportations, did so due to the strength of their spirit, the force of their will, and endless hope. (Read More..)
