Popis: | Ernests Minka (1873–1940) was born in Liepaja and actively participated in the “New Current” (Jaunā strāva) movement. Forced to emigrate, since 1897 he lived in London and in 1916 moved to USA, Philadelphia, where he soon became one of the most visible activists within the Latvian community. Based on the example of E. Minka, the article describes the attitudes prevalent among Latvian diaspora in the USA towards the newly-founded Republic of Latvia as well as activities of diaspora with intention to help their homeland. |
