Indigenous people didn’t fare well in the 19th century in the United States; that’s just a baseline fact,” says Frank. “That being said, some Indigenous people fared worse, and some Indigenous people were treated even more harshly by the U.S. We work together to determine the best course of action based on everyone’s ideas and input, and find that our best work comes from taking the time to collaborate as equals,” Rose City Antifa explains. “We also want to avoid our actions being reduced to that of a single individual – that cannot only put that person at risk, but we want to demonstrate that we act in unity and that we don’t do this for social capital, but because we think it is the right thing to do.

Hanukkah comes from the Hebrew verb, “to dedicate” or “dedication”. The celebration of Hanukkah is a commemoration of an event that happened more than 2,000 years ago.C., the Syrian king Antiochus IV began to outlaw Jewish religious practices and forced Jews to adopt Greek rituals. The agricultural revolution began in earnest when farmers learned how to irrigate the fertile soils of the river valleys, where mineral-rich layers of silt enabled larger and more consistent harvests, which supported larger and more permanent human settlements. A levee is simply a man-made embankment built to keep a river from overflowing its banks or to prevent ocean waves from washing into undesired areas. In parts of the Netherlands, dikes stop ocean waters from reclaiming thousands of miles of land, much of which is either at or below sea level. There are even parts of the Netherlands, called polders, where the Dutch have created new dry land along the sea by diking and draining it. The famous windmills of Holland pump water from behind the dikes and back out to sea to keep the land dry. Living by the water provides humans with a number of advantages: fertile farm land, transportation, trade and hydroelectric power.

Humans have­ attempted to conquer the problems of changing water levels for thousands of years. In 1953, the North Sea broke through the Netherland’s ancient system of dikes and killed thousands. Much of the city lies 10 feet (3 meters) below sea level. In Holland, they can top 30 feet (10 meters). Levees along the Mississippi River may range from 10 to 20 feet (3 to 7 meters) tall. Eliot described the river as “a strong brown god,” a powerful force that, while often patient and nurturing, frequently proves itself untam­able and merciless. But humans have a bad habit of forgetting just how powerful their “strong brown god” really is. Levees allow humans to enjoy these assets without fear of flooding. In 1927, the Mississippi River swelled under heavy rains, charging through a line of levees and flooding an area the size of Ireland.

These mounds run in a long strip, sometimes for many miles, along a river, lake or ocean. Even today, ocean storms threaten to decimate centuries’ worth of human endeavor. However, the production of new motor vehicles by Germany, even with the exploitation of the industries of occupied countries, could not keep up with the heavy loss of motor vehicles during the winter of 1941-1942. From June 1941 to the end of February 1942 German forces in the Soviet Union lost some 75,000 trucks, approximately half the number they had at the beginning of the campaign, to mechanical wear and tear and combat damage. The M274 Mule is one of the most bare-bones vehicles in military history. The greatest cities in human history have risen up on the banks of rivers and by the seaside, but in doing so, their builders chose to­ live in close confines with an unruly force. Like another famous winter-time holiday, Christmas, Hanukkah is about history.
