What followed was an unearthing of contradictions of what \"family\" means in a segregated United States. In the 1930s, Rose, an Ashkenazi Jewish woman, married Zebedee Arnwine, an African American man. The Arnwines faced a multitude of barriers due to their interracial marriage, and Rose faced familial and community ostracization for her choice. Her siblings, including Kinberg's father, kept her existence a secret from their children while building a strong sense of family and reinforcing the segregation between Jewish and Black communities. Eighty years later, Kinberg--whose own interracial, queer family moved in search of safe community--traced her aunt's quest for a safe place to live and her eventual choice to settle on Paradise Lake in Michigan.\u003ci\u003e By the Waters of Paradise\u003c\/i\u003e is a riveting family history that paints a startling portrait of racism and antisemitism and the lasting effects across generations.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51298899034335,"sku":"9780814352755","price":28.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/8958\/4607\/files\/djuRGCmIEv9780814352755.webp?v=1788133922"}],"url":"https:\/\/blackandbarhe.com\/collections\/clare-kinberg.oembed","provider":"Black \u0026 Barhe Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
