, An Open Letter_ To The Rhode Island . Jewish Community

June 18, 1981 Dear Friends: So many of us have personally experienced the shock and revulsion that accompanies the phoned threat in the night, the desecrated household and the . . hated symbol of Nazism on our synagogues. The events of which we speak did not happen to us in Germany in the 1930s. They happened over the past year - right here in our home State of Rhode Island. But in 1980-81 we were not just victims. We had an institution to fight back. The most important institution at our disposal was, and is, the Anti-Defamation League of B 'nai B 'rith. ' When we were threatened, we called the ADL. When we received' hate mail during a time of family crisis, we called the ADL. When our synagogues and cemeteries were desecrated, we called the ADL. The ADL never failed to re­ spond. It is the one organization that defends the Jewish community in the never-ending struggle against anti-Semitism in Rhode Island, in New England and throughout the world. With twenty-seven offices in every major American city and offices in Rome, Paris and Jerusalem, the ADL is our watchdog, the guardian of world Jewry. The ADL 's active presence in our community has bee'!. instrumental in ex­ posing. those who deface our homes, synagogues and cemeteries to law en­ forcement authorities. ADL has pushed hard for a meaningful law with teeth / . - a bill that would make it a felony to desecrate religious institutions, to com- mit anti-religious and racist acts of violence and a bill that would outlaw para­ military extremist activity in our state. The para-military bill will be intro­ duced into the Rhode Island Legislature next term with a wide-range of politi.­ cal support, thanks to the efforts of the ADL. Once again we are asking that our community support the ADL presence here. The ADL must be able to continue its valuable work. We are going di­ rectly to the community and asking you for your support. WE NEED THE ANTI-DEFAMATIONLEAGUE­ AND NOW THE ADL NEEDS US.

Thank yo~.
