  • Merchants Of
    Introduction The Jews never faced much anti-Semitism in America. This is due, in large part, to the underlying ideologies it was founded on; namely, universalistic interpretations of Christianity and Enlightenment ideals of freedom, equality and opportunity for all. These principles, which were arguably created with noble intent – and based on the values inherent in a society of European-descended peoples of high moral character – crippled the defenses of the individualistic-minded White natives and gave the Jews free reign to consolidate power at a rather alarming rate, virtually unchecked. The Jews began emigrating to the United States in waves around 1880, when their population was only about 250,000. Within a decade that number was nearly double, and by the 1930s it had shot to 3 to 4 million. Many of these immigrants – if not most – were Eastern European Jews of the nastiest sort, and they immediately became vastly overrepresented among criminals and subversives. A 1908 police commissioner report shows that while the Jews made up only a quarter of the population of New York City at that time, they were responsible for 50% of its crime. Land of the free. One of their more common criminal activities has always been the sale and promotion of pornography and smut. Two quotes should suffice in backing up this assertion, one from an anti-Semite, and one from a Jew. Firstly, an early opponent of the Jews in America, Greek scholar T.T. Timayenis, wrote in his 1888 book The Original Mr. Jacobs that nearly “all obscene publications are the work of the Jews,” and that the historian of the future who shall attempt to describe the catalogue of the filthy publications issued by the Jews during the last ten years will scarcely believe the evidence of his own eyes.

  • Now and Forever — a Conversation with Israel Zangwill (New York: Robert M
    Now and Forever — A Conversation with Israel Zangwill (New York: Robert M. McBride & Co., 1925), 156 pp. Another "by Jews, for Jews" special, from the Memory Hole. The tone of works such as this is quite different from what is presented in the media for general (i.e., "gentile") consumption. A strange little book I picked up. Samuel Roth discusses the state of Jewry with Israel Zangwill. Zangwill was a playwright who coined the phrase "melting pot" and who wrote a standard "refutation" of the Protocols . It deals with how Jews see themselves -- and how they think others see them. It's funny to see two Jews pretending to be "against" one another in a debate -- like two ants from the same anthill. All the extreme arrogance and subjectivity of Jews is displayed here. Jews are distinctive in the world in raising such things to near hallucinogenic levels. Compare with Hosmer and Marcus Eli Ravage. Some of the most incredible (or oddly candid) statements I highlighted in red as I went thru' the text. Jews say "we're special because we remember" -- their way of saying they institutionalize trans-generational ethnic hatred as a way of separating themselves from the rest of human society. My favorite part -- Roth compares St. Paul with Trotsky! He further says that Jews are the only real Christians, and that "Jesus preached of Jews and for Jews". He says that Jesus hated the world (when he really just hated Jews -- but Jews are "the world", according to them: all others are "not of Adam"). But we mustn't forget that this Problem is primarily an ethnic, and not a religious, one.

For more information, please contact [email protected]. Unpublished Letters of Ezra Pound to James, Nora, and Stanislaus Joyce Robert Spoo University of Tulsa According to my computation, 198 letters between Ezra so come Pound and James Joyce have far to light. Excluding or letters to by family members (as when Joyce had Nora write for him during his iUnesses), I count 103 letters by Joyce to Pound, 26 of which have been pubUshed, and 95 letters by Pound to Joyce, 75 of which have been published. These numbers should give some idea of the service that Forrest Read performed nearly thirty years ago in collecting and pubUshing the letters of Pound to Joyce,1 and make vividly clear also how poorly represented in print Joyce's side of the correspondence is. Given the present policy of the Estate of James Joyce, we cannot expect to see this imbalance rectified any time soon, but Iwould remind readers that the bulk of Joyce's un pubUshed letters to Pound may be examined at Yale University's Beinecke Library.

On these grounds, Everard decides against forming a permanent relationship with her, and sums her up in these words: He had magnified Rhoda’s image. She was not the glorious rebel he had pictured.

We generally sit alone reading documents in archives and write our articles and books without co-authors. But, this book could not have been written without material and moral assistance from colleagues, family and friends. Archival documents constitute the basis for the historical research that has led to the writing of this book. This research could not have been carried out without the devoted help and professional skill of archive workers in the United States and in Israel. My deepest thanks to those in the Central Zionist Archive in Jerusalem, in the Archive of the American Jewish Historical Society in New York, in the Yad Vashem Archive in Jerusalem and in the American Jewish Joint Distri- bution Committee (JDC) in New York and Jerusalem.

  • The Brooklyn College Foundation Annual Report 2010 - 2011 2010 – 2011 Annual Report | 1
    THE BROOKLYN COLLEGE FOUNDATION Annual Report 2010 - 2011 DEAR ALUMNI AND FRIENDS, The fiscal year ending June 30, 2011, was one of solid growth for the Brooklyn College Foundation. The number of contributions from alumni and friends continued to rise and the total value of gifts and pledges nearly doubled over the previous year. I am pleased to report that we are making considerable progress toward the $200 million goal of our Foundation for Success Campaign. Although the amount raised is impressive, the impact of these donations is what counts. Through the generosity of friends, alumni and private foundations, we were able to grant over 1,200 scholarships and awards. We have provided funding for students to take advantage of unique learning opportunities from New Orleans to Peru, from Paris to South Africa and, of course, right here in Brooklyn. And we have supported new facilities and equipment necessary to provide students with a 21st century education of the highest quality. As chair of the foundation, I am grateful to my fellow trustees for their engagement and leadership. The continuing impact of the foundation is due in large part to their strategic counsel and dedication. I am also grateful for the privilege to work alongside President Karen L. Gould. Under her leadership, Brooklyn College has charted an ambitious and exciting vision for the future with student success at its core. On behalf of the trustees and staff of the Brooklyn College Foundation, I want to thank everyone who has contributed to our mission to provide access to excellence for the students of this great institution.
