Explore the rich history and profound impact of the New School for Social Research with 'A Light in Dark Times' by Judith Friedlander. This essential book delves into the institution established in 1919 as a beacon of academic freedom during tumultuous times. Unveiling its pioneering spirit in adult education, Friedlander captures the emergence of an educational haven where thought leaders like John Dewey and Hannah Arendt discussed contemporary politics and arts, enriching the landscape of social inquiry.In 'A Light in Dark Times', readers will encounter the challenges faced by the New School amidst the oppressive regimes of the 20th century, including the rise of fascism and the scars of the red scare. The narrative intricately weaves the voices of exiled scholars and students who shaped the discourse during critical periods in history, providing both a historical account and a philosophical reflection on the ongoing fight for academic freedom.
Ideal for students, educators, and history buffs alike, this volume serves as a testament to the resilience of intellectual thought. Judith Friedlander's insightful analysis not only narrates historical events but also prompts readers to consider the essential role of education in sustaining liberal democracies. As the New School approaches its centennial celebration, 'A Light in Dark Times' stands as a vital reflection on its legacy in safeguarding the tradition of free and open inquiry.

Gorgeous
Color: Bronze-Tone
It really is pretty to look at. To be honest arranging the earring on the tree is a bit of a pain, because the leaves tilt in different directions, and you have to play with it a bit to get the earrings to hang the way you would like them, but once you figure it out, they look very nice. I just adore it because it looks so pretty. I use the basket on the side for rings and watches, and the little plate in the base for a few miscellaneous pieces like necklaces or bracelets for balance and because they look nice. You'll love it.

gorgeous, and worth the purchase.
Color: Bronze
I wasn't sure about purchasing the jewelry stand at first (I had my doubts), but those doubts quickly disappeared upon the arrival/unpackaging of the jewelry stand.
SHIPPING/PACKAGING
It was nicely packaged, and not bent or damaged when I recieved it. The stand was a little wobbly (due to careless measuring of the copper balls, the fault of the manufacturer)
THE PRODUCT
The pictures are not how it is. Remember that. I thought the tree would be more three dimensional, you know- like a real tree. It wasn't, though. It was like someone took a 2D copper tree and made it stand up. It's still pretty, though, and holds a lot of jewelry.
PRICE-WISE
If you're looking at the price and it says $45 or more, don't buy it. I waited a month for the price to go down (I'm just a cheapskate) and it did. It went from $45 or so, down to $25 or so. So, unless its life or death, be patient and buy it when the price is right.
OVERALL?
In general, I was pleased with the product. It wasn't my dream jewelry stand, but it was worth my money and the wait.

Beautiful and sturdy
Color: Bronze, Color: Bronze
This piece is far superior than I expected. It is beautiful and sturdy. I don't have a lot of fancy jewelry. I just have several everyday pieces with a few unique pieces. This tree was perfect. It is attractive, like a unique piece of jewelry itself.

Beautiful and Functional Desk Upgrade
Color: Pink Marble-31.5"x15.8"(with Wall Charger)
I absolutely love this Pink Marble Mouse Pad with 15W Wireless Charging. The design is beautiful, soft, and feminine without being too much, and it instantly makes my desk look more polished and organized. The large size is perfect because it gives me plenty of room for my keyboard, mouse, notebook, and other desk essentials while still keeping everything looking neat.
The wireless charging feature is such a convenient bonus. I love being able to place my phone down and charge it while I work without having extra cords everywhere. The surface is smooth, my mouse glides easily, and the pad feels comfortable during long hours at my desk.
Overall, this is a great mix of style and function. It is perfect for a home office, gaming setup, content creation space, or anyone who wants their desk to look cute and stay practical. Highly recommend!

Works Well and Good Quality
Color: Black-Stock Market-31.5"x15.8"(with Wall Charger)
The recharging feature works well for both phone and earbuds. Phone charges very fast. Great looking mousepad that has ample size for both keyboard and mouse. Mouse moves easily on the surface and is much better than using it solely on a tabletop. Great price too!
