# Hieronim Derdowski

> Hieronim Derdowski was a Kashubian intellectual and activist. He was born to Kashubian parents in the Pomeranian village of Wiele in the German Empire. By the time Derdowski emigrated to the United States in 1885, he had already studied for the Roman Catholic priesthood, been repeatedly incarcerated by the German authorities, and edited a newspaper in the city of Thorn. At the time, however, Derdowski was better known as a poet. Within two years of reaching the United States he became editor of the Winona, Minnesota Polish-language newspaper Wiarus. In this role he gained a reputation as a strong voice for the Polish-American community, also known as Polonia.
