GREETINGS!

Picture
Dear readers of the INTERNATIONAL MIDWEST Magazine! I would like to thank you in advance for your time and interest in the MIDWEST INTERNATIONAL Magazine. The idea of this magazine is to highlight the life of the international community in the Midwest. I find that it is important to CONNECT people of different ethnic groups; INSPIRE those who are not yet confident; and PROMOTE the businesses and cultures of our diverse community. Originally from Russia, I moved to beautiful Kansas City in 1999. Thank you Kansas City for allowing me to call you my home. Our city is very special because of many things it offers. For example - JAZZ! The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) designated Kansas City as part of its Creative Cities Network for music. Jazz is an art form created in the United States, and Kansas City’s swing style was born here and exported worldwide. “This gives us a platform that no other city in America has for our music,” said Mayor Pro Tem Scott Wagner in 2017. “We know that Kansas City’s jazz has had global impact, and this is now being recognized internationally.” (www.kcmo.gov)  Jazz began as a melding of traditions from the African and European diasporas. Now it is an international export. As a musician myself, I am happy to support our city’s Jazz culture! Together, we can continue legacies like Kansas City Jazz, to make our home in the Midwest more international. Let's CONNECT, PROMOTE and INSPIRE each other.  

I have needed this support myself, too: with the connection and inspiration of professional friends and editors, I began with limited English skills and have grown into a poet and writer in the English language. With this confidence, I enjoy contributing to my community. For many years, I was embarrassed about my strong Russian accent. I was afraid to speak out. But that is not the case anymore. As soon as I accepted myself and my ethnic background, possibilities opened for me: I found that others listened to me and valued my opinion. I hope this magazine will help people of different cultures find courage if it is lost, embrace talent if it is hidden, reach out to those who live with a minority mindset, and understand each other better. We often don't realize how global and multicultural our region truly is. We might not think about how strongly we are connected. We often forget that our world is beautiful because we are different. The idea behind International Midwest is to be connected, inspire each other and promote our unique cultures!


Sincerely, ​
Svetlana S. Yeager
Founder of the INTERNATIONAL MIDWEST Magazine

If I could give you one thought, it would be to lift someone up. Lift a stranger up--lift her up. I would ask you, mother and father, brother and sister, lovers, mother and daughter, father and son, lift someone. The very idea of lifting someone up will lift you, as well.

We need to give each other the space to grow, to be ourselves, to exercise our diversity. We need to give each other space so that we may both give and receive such beautiful things as ideas, openness, dignity, joy, healing, and inclusion.
