from POLcast · host Małgorzata P. Bonikowska and Tomek Kniat
From 1940 Kazachstan to 2022 Canada Today I am speaking to two women whom I have interviewed before: • ALICJA EDWARDS (born in 1924) Alicja Edwards is a 98-year-old writer, painter, pianist and antique expert and dealer. She lives in Eureka, Montana. Her paintings showing the traumatic years in Kazachstan in the 1940’s are now telling this incredible story of survival as part of Alicja Edwards exhibit at the Muzeum Pamieci Sybiru (The Sybir Memorial Museum) in Bialystok, Poland. • Louiza Szacon from KONEKT A Polish Canadian professionals’ organization, whose launch we celebrated on POLcast in 2018 - Konekt has been growing and expanding. I’m talking to Louiza Szacon again to find out how Konekt has evolved and where it’s going now. ____________________________________ MUSIC “Ukrainian Village” composed and played by Derek and Brandon Fiechter, identical twins from Indiana.
