Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focuses on the struggle of Marshall (1856-1929) against antisemitism in the USA and worldwide, both before 1913 and afterward in his capacity as president of the American Jewish Committee. Marshall was sensitive to antisemitism from his early years. Realizing that antisemitism in the USA was not comparable to that of the Old World in its intensity and organizational base, he opposed declaring its danger publicly and advocated moderate forms of fighting it. Describes Marshall's campaign for the dismissal of Melvil Dewey from New York state service in 1904 and his struggle against federal immigration restrictions that were covertly anti-Jewish, as well as the antisemitic atmosphere surrounding the Leo Frank case and Marshall's protests against it, and his disdain for the activities of the Ku Klux Klan. Discusses his struggle against the myth of Jewish Bolshevism and "The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, " and against Henry Ford's anti-Jewish propaganda campaign and the latter's newspaper, "The Dearborn Independent." Marshall vehemently fought discrimination against Jews in the social, economic, and religious spheres.

Download or read book Louis Marshall and the Rise of Jewish Ethnicity in America written by Matthew Silver and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2013-02-21 with total page 666 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A milestone in modern Jewish history and American ethnic history, the sweeping influence of Louis Marshall’s career through the 1920s is unprecedented. A tireless advocate for and leader of an array of notable American Jewish organizations and institutions, Marshall also spearheaded civil rights campaigns for other ethnic groups, blazing the trail for the NAACP, Native American groups, and environmental protection causes in the early twentieth century. No comprehensive biography has been published that does justice to Marshall’s richly diverse life as an impassioned defender of Jewish communal interests and as a prominent attorney who reportedly argued more cases before the Supreme Court than any other attorney of his era. Silver eloquently fills that gap, tracing Marshall’s career in detail to reveal how Jewish subgroups of Eastern European immigrants and established Central European elites interacted in New York City and elsewhere to fuse distinctive communal perspectives on specific Jewish issues and broad American affairs. Through the chronicle of Marshall’s life, Silver sheds light on immigration policies, Jewish organizational and social history, environmental activism, and minority politics during World War I, and he bears witness to the rise of American Jewish ethnicity in pre-Holocaust America.

Book excerpt: In his 72 years, Constitutional attorney Louis Marshall led an extraordinary life. His impact on his community, his nation, and his era established him as one of the great pride-filled Jews of the twentieth century. Now, in this epic biography, Marshall's incredible story is told in vibrant detail. Born in Syracuse, New York, in 1856 to poor German immigrants, Marshall persevered despite his humble beginnings and became a prominent lawyer in New York City. He attained a reputation as a fierce defender of individual rights, a passionate environmentalist, humanitarian, philanthropist, and community leader, defending his fellow Jews and all Americans who faced racial or religious discrimination. Marshall was one of the founders of the American Jewish Committee, as well as a member of the boards of the NAACP and New York State College of Forestry. He was also a trustee of Syracuse University. In 1914, Marshall was a leader in organizing relief organizations to aid Jews suffering from the ravages of World War I and later served on the Jewish-American delegation to the Paris Peace conference. His death in 1929 left a void no one could fill. Written with grace and style, this biography pays tribute to one of history's most dedicated Americans.

Book excerpt: Papers of Louis Marshall, containing correspondence, memoranda, pamphlets, minutes, reports, and copies of Congressional bills. Louis Marshall, a leader in American Judaism, was born in Syracuse, New York. He moved to New York City and graduated from Columbia Law School in 1877; in 1894, he joined the law firm of Guggenheimer and Untermyer, later becoming a partner in the firm. Marshall was a Reform Jew; president and strategist of the American Jewish Committee; Chairman of the Commission of Immigration in New York State; and led the opposition concerning the establishment of literacy tests for new immigrants. Marshall was a defender of Leo Frank, a negotiator in the Peace Conference of 1919, and attempted to block Henry Ford's publication, the Dearborn Independent, due to anti-Semitic rhetoric. Though Marshall was a somewhat controversial figure in American Judaism, he nonetheless worked diligently on issues regarding Jewish immigration and rights.

This book was released on 2000-12-22 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Probing these questions, Gulie Ne'eman Arad finds that, more than the events themselves, what was instrumental in dictating and shaping the American Jews' response to Nazism was the dilemma posed by their desire for acceptance by American society, on the one hand, and their commitment to community solidarity, on the other. When American Jews were faced with the desperate plight of European Jews after Hitler's accession to power, they were hesitant to press the case for immigration for fear of raising doubts about their patriotism.

Book excerpt: Seeking the reasons behind Jewish altruism toward African Americans, Hasis Finer shows how-in the wake of the Leo Frank trial and lynching in Atlanta-Jews came to see that their relative prosperity wa sno protection against the same social forces that threatened blacks. Jewish leaders and organizations genuinely believed in the cause of black civil rights, Diner suggests, but they also used that cause as a way of advancing their own interests-launching a vicarious attack on the nation that they felt had not lived up to its own ideals of freedom and equality.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An incisive account of the foreign policy beliefs of American Jews from the nineteenth century to the present How do American Jews envision their role in the world? Are they tribal—a people whose obligations extend solely to their own? Or are they prophetic—a light unto nations, working to repair the world? The Star and the Stripes is an original, provocative interpretation of the effects of these worldviews on the foreign policy beliefs of American Jews since the nineteenth century. Michael Barnett argues that it all begins with the political identity of American Jews. As Jews, they are committed to their people's survival. As Americans, they identify with, and believe their survival depends on, the American principles of liberalism, religious freedom, and pluralism. This identity and search for inclusion form a political theology of prophetic Judaism that emphasizes the historic mission of Jews to help create a world of peace and justice. The political theology of prophetic Judaism accounts for two enduring features of the foreign policy beliefs of American Jews. They exhibit a cosmopolitan sensibility, advocating on behalf of human rights, humanitarianism, and international law and organizations. They also are suspicious of nationalism—including their own. Contrary to the conventional wisdom that American Jews are natural-born Jewish nationalists, Barnett charts a long history of ambivalence; this ambivalence connects their early rejection of Zionism with the current debate regarding their attachment to Israel. And, Barnett contends, this growing ambivalence also explains the rising popularity of humanitarian and social justice movements among American Jews. Rooted in the understanding of how history shapes a political community's sense of the world, The Star and the Stripes is a bold reading of the past, present, and possible future foreign policies of American Jews.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over a career spanning forty years, David G. Dalin has written extensively about the role of American Jews in public life, from the nation’s founding, to presidential appointments of Jews, to lobbying for the welfare of Jews abroad, to Jewish prominence in government, philanthropy, intellectual life, and sports, and their one-time prominence in the Republican Party. His work on the separation of Church and State and a prescient 1980 essay about the limits of free speech and the goal of Neo-Nazis to stage a march in Skokie, Illinois, are especially noteworthy. Here for the first time are a collection of sixteen of his essays which portray American Jews who have left their mark on American public life and politics.
