A Master’s Thesis Presented to The Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Brandeis University Hornstein Jewish Professional Leadership Program Professors Ellen Smith and Jonathan Krasner Ph.D., Advisors In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts by Leah Robbins May 2020 Copyright by Leah Robbins 2020 Acknowledgements This thesis was made possible by the generous and thoughtful guidance of my two advisors, Professors Ellen Smith and Jonathan Krasner. Their content expertise, ongoing encouragement, and loving pushback were invaluable to the work. This research topic is complex for the Jewish community and often wrought with pain. My advisors never once questioned my intentions, my integrity as a researcher, or my clear and undeniable commitment to the Jewish people of the past, present, and future. I do not take for granted this gift of trust, which bolstered the work I’m so proud to share. I am also grateful to the entire Hornstein community for making room for me to show up in my fullness, and for saying “yes” to authentically wrestle with my ideas along the way. It’s been a great privilege to stretch and grow alongside you, and I look forward to continuing to shape one another in the years to come. iii ABSTRACT The “Black-Jewish Coalition” Unraveled: Where Does Israel Fit? A thesis presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Brandeis University Waltham, Massachusetts By Leah Robbins Fascination with the famed “Black-Jewish coalition” in the United States, whether real or imaginary, is hardly a new phenomenon of academic interest.

  • Operation BREAKTHROUGH
    PHASE II: PROTOTYPE CONSTRUCTION AND DEMONSTRATION U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT OFFICE OF POLICY DEVELOPMENT AND RESEARCH WASHINGTON, D.C. For sale by the Superintendent CJf Documents, U.S. Government Printin" Office WashingtCJn, D.C. 20402 Price $4.16 StCJck Number 023-000-00308-2 CataloK Number HH 1.2:B74/9/Vol. 4 The Department of Housing and Urban Development launched Operation Preface BREAKTHROUGH in 1969 to stimulate volume production of quality housing for all income levels. Factory building offered a logical means-then as it does now-for the housing industry to grow and progress. We set ambitious objectives for that growth. BREAKTHROUGH tested many techniques of industrialization. Significantly, it began to measure the effect of such traditional restraints as building codes, zoning laws, labor practices, and transportation methods. The energy and imagina­ tion shown by thousands of people who participated in the program likely will stand as a milestone in our housing history. This report, part of the Feedback series, covers an important period in that history. It describes various Phase II BREAKTHROUGH activities related to development of the nine demonstration sites, giving prominence to the role played by the Prototype Site Developers. Useful information is furnished for all profes­ sionals concerned with the future of factory building. But the book does more, giving the interested layman an appreciation of housing, of industrialized housing particularly, and of the government-private enterprise efforts to improve the hous­ ing process through Operation BREAKTHROUGH. Nowhere is the BREAK­ THROUGH endeavor more visible than at the prototype sites, where the practical­ ity of different systems has been tested, in settings that illustrate how well the land can be developed for a variety of dwellings and life styles.

However, as federal dollars became available for urban renewal programs, Sacramento officials elected to tear down the West End, sending thousands of West Enders into the greater Sacramento area. Many of these individuals were again steered into areas without racial covenants, such as Del Paso Heights, Oak Park, and various areas within South Sacramento. Some of these individuals held professional careers and could comfortably afford to live in areas of their choice.

    SEEKING A PLACE IN THE SUN: SEPIA MAGAZINE’S ENDEAVOR FOR QUALITY JOURNALISM AND PLACE IN THE NEGRO MARKET, 1951-1982 by MIA CHANDRA LONG CARYL COOPER, COMMITTEE CHAIR GEORGE DANIELS KARLA K. GOWER MARGOT O. LAMME LENITA M. DAVIS A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the College of Communication & Information Sciences in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2011 Copyright Mia Chandra Long 2011 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Sepia magazine began in Fort Worth, Texas in 1947 as Negro Achievements , a magazine highlighting African American success articles and featuring reader-submitted true confessions stories. In 1951, two years after the death of its black founder, Horace J. Blackwell, Sepia found new leadership in white business mogul, George Levitan. With Levitan’s guidance, the magazine became the longest standing competitor to the more successful African American magazine, Ebony . This dissertation chronicles the history of Sepia magazine by discussing its editorial philosophy, comparing its editorial content to that featured in Ebony , and highlighting factors that potentially led to its failure. Previous studies provide information on Sepia ’s portrayal of African American women, Viet Nam coverage, and overall history. However, all prior research excludes the examination of the magazine’s final years, failing to assess the probable reasons for its demise. The current study utilizes magazine content, employee manuscripts, interoffice communication, and news articles in its investigation of the magazine’s life and death throughout the years of its existence, 1951-1982. This dissertation enhances magazine research in a variety of ways.

The governmental dissemination of inaccurate information to local law enforcement and news media outlets regarding black militants had a devastating effect on African American communities across the country. This study examines how the news media overtime helped to construct a negative image and memory of the Black Panther Party. In turn African Americans have created and forged their own counter memory through black institutions, such as the black press, to offset the public memory of black culture and revolutionary politics in America.
