Book Description
Elucidating the controversial area of Black-Jewish relations, 18 contributors analyze the roles played by Southern rabbis in the genesis, heyday, and aftermath of the Black civil rights era. Case studies explore the personal and social forces that shaped about 100 religious leaders' responses to injustice toward another minority group: from fiery public denouncement to quiet behind the scenes support.
