Bread and Salt
Maria Schumann
My grandmother was born in a tiny village in Russia just six years before the Russian Revolution. She died 93 years later in a wealthy Connecticut bedroom community. Her life journey spanned continents, two world wars, ideologies, and religions. This is my podcast about her and my quest to find out more about her life and the world she came from. Family history, folklore, pagan gods, and traditional folk song on one hand. Revolution, communism, capitalism, the cold war, cults, and the formation of NATO on the other. breadandsalt.substack.com
