In this gorgeously written and “vividly fascinating” (Elle) account, a prize-winning journalist digs deep into his ancestry looking for the origins of his unusual last name and discovers that he comes from one of America’s earliest mixed-race families. “My dad’s family was a mystery,” writes journalist Joe Mozingo, having grown up with only rumors about where his father’s family was from—Italy, France, the Basque Country. But when a college professor told the blue-eyed Californian that his family name may have come from sub-Saharan Africa, Mozingo set out on an epic journey to uncover the truth. He soon discovered that all Mozingos in America, including his father’s line, appeared to have descended from a black man named Edward Mozingo who was brought to America as a slave in 1644 and, after winning his freedom twenty-eight years later, became a tenant tobacco farmer, married a white woman, and fathered one of the country’s earliest mixed-race family lineages. Tugging at the buried thread of his origins, Joe Mozingo has unearthed a saga that encompasses the full sweep of America’s history and lays bare the country’s tortured and paradoxical experience with race. Haunting and beautiful, Mozingo’s memoir paints a world where the lines based on color are both illusory and life altering. He traces his family line from the ravages of the slave trade to the mixed-race society of colonial Virginia and through the brutal imposition of racial laws.

A sparkling and eye-opening history of the Broadway musical that changed the world In the half-century since its premiere, Fiddler on the Roof has had an astonishing global impact. Beloved by audiences the world over, performed from rural high schools to grand state theaters, Fiddler is a supremely potent cultural landmark. In a history as captivating as its subject, award-winning drama critic Alisa Solomon traces how and why the story of Tevye the milkman, the creation of the great Yiddish writer Sholem-Aleichem, was reborn as blockbuster entertainment and a cultural touchstone, not only for Jews and not only in America. It is a story of the theater, following Tevye from his humble appearance on the New York Yiddish stage, through his adoption by leftist dramatists as a symbol of oppression, to his Broadway debut in one of the last big book musicals, and his ultimate destination—a major Hollywood picture. Solomon reveals how the show spoke to the deepest conflicts and desires of its time: the fraying of tradition, generational tension, the loss of roots. Audiences everywhere found in Fiddler immediate resonance and a usable past, whether in Warsaw, where it unlocked the taboo subject of Jewish history, or in Tokyo, where the producer asked how Americans could understand a story that is "so Japanese." Rich, entertaining, and original, Wonder of Wonders reveals the surprising and enduring legacy of a show about tradition that itself became a tradition. Wonder of wonders, miracle of miracles.

What is most striking about Samantha Louise Michelle Fiddler is not how much attention she has received to date, but how little. Fiddler, a Canadian wrestler and model, was last officially seen in Central Florida on November 19, 2016. Before her last documented sighting, she frequently spoke to her three young children in Alberta.Samantha (b. 1987) was the girlfriend of Canadian wrestler Edward Ellsworth Annis, also known as Teddy Hart. He is a member of the multi-generation Hart wrestling family via his mother Georgia. Fiddler began her training under him in Alberta, and he eventually brought her to Florida to continue her instruction. In Orlando, she trained at Chasyn Rance's gym, Team Vision Dojo, and Alex "The Pug" Pourteau's gym, Pro Wrestling 2.0. Due to the secrecy in some portions of that city's wrestling industry and the altered names used daily by some persons in it, it is unclear if Fiddler was aware of past accusations regarding her trainers and peers. Notwithstanding the active social media and public presences of her Florida-based coaches and fellow athletes, it appears that none publicly showed concern or remarked on Fiddler's disappearance. Their collective silence is puzzling, as it seems that the wrestler was well-liked. It is rumored that Chasyn Rance uses his Team Vision gym located in Orlando's BMZ Partnership/Nar-Vista Commerce Center, and his Waterford Trails neighborhood home, for the unlicensed production of sadistic chloroform-themed adult videos for private customers using the aliases Chase Sinn and John Michaels. Annis (b. 1980) appears in the videos as Teddy Trouble. Considering Rance's and Hart's asserted "womanizing" images, it is notable that they perform in some shoots with gay themes. A church is a close neighbor in the complex.In addition to the private recordings sold to individual customers, Team Vision's space, located a mere half-hour from Walt Disney World, is reportedly used to produce hundreds of unlicensed specialty videos that are readily available on several pay websites. Among categories available are Ball Bashing, Chain, 3-way, College Guy, Armpit, Dog Collar, Bald, Hair Pulling, Feet, Forced 2 Flex, Gut Bash, Military, Headscissors, Knocked Out, Black, Mat Rats, Rope, Smooth, Spanking, Tickle, Vampire and Unleashed. Also available for paying customers are "1-on-1 Wrestling Sessions" and "Meet-and-Greets" with the titillating performers. Used gear worn by the sweaty actors is available for purchase. Conceivably, the "Happiest Place on Earth" has many meanings in Orange County. Fiddler is of Cree ethnicity. According to the US Department of Justice, Native American women are up to 10 times more likely than other demographics to be murdered. They are also drastically more likely to be victims of sex trafficking, abduction, sexual assault and domestic violence. Statistics regarding indigenous women in Canada reveal that they are also at significantly higher risks to be victims of these crimes. This book is inappropriate for children due to descriptions of homicide, sexual assault, domestic violence, adult videos and other sensitive issues.The author, editors, publisher and distributor do not allege or imply that any of the persons or businesses named or in supplementary photos or graphics were linked to Samantha Fiddler's disappearance or current criminal activity. The author and associated parties have retained legal counsel and are prepared to aggressively defend the right to publish this material.Net profits from the sales of the Kindle e-book will be donated to Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network (RAINN).

North American Fiddle Music: A Research and Information Guide is the first large-scale annotated bibliography and research guide on the fiddle traditions of the United States and Canada.
