    The “Black-Jewish Coalition” Unraveled: Where Does Israel Fit? 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.

  • 1 History of the Association of Reform Zionists of America a Rabbinical
    History of the Association of Reform Zionists of America A Rabbinical Thesis by Rabbi Michael Satz The American Reform Movement has had a mixed history when it comes to its attitudes to Zionism. The 1885 Pittsburgh Platform clearly states, “[We] therefore expect neither a return to Palestine . nor the restoration of any of the laws concerning the Jewish state.” With the influence of pro-Zionist rabbis like Abba Hillel Silver and Stephen S. Wise, by 1937 the Columbus Platform of the Central Conference of American Rabbis reads, “We affirm the obligation of all Jewry to aid in its [Palestine's] up-building as a Jewish homeland by endeavoring to make it not only a haven of refuge for the oppressed but also a center of Jewish culture and spiritual life.” In a little over fifty years the Reform Movement changed from an anti-Zionist stance to one that was supportive of both political and cultural Zionist thought, but it did not yet advocate for a Jewish state. By the 1970’s the Reform Movement had not only fully accepted the State of Israel, but was seeking to influence its nature. Israel had been in existence for two decades, and there was a sense of euphoria about its strength after the 1967 Six Day War. This is reflected in the 1976 CCAR platform: “We are bound to . the newly reborn State of Israel by innumerable religious and ethnic ties . We have both a stake and a responsibility in building the State of Israel, assuring its security and defining its Jewish character.” One year later the Union of American Hebrew Congregations decided to step into the political world of the Zionist movement by establishing the Association of Reform Zionists of America (ARZA).

  • America's Original Sin Rabbi Richard A. Block the Temple – Tifereth Israel Cleveland, Ohio Yom Kippur 5777/2016 It's Somet
    America’s Original Sin Rabbi Richard A. Block The Temple – Tifereth Israel Cleveland, Ohio Yom Kippur 5777/2016 It’s sometimes said that the difference between optimists and pessimists is that optimists believe this is the best of all possible worlds and pessimists are afraid they’re right. In truth, life is more complex than that, as Dickens’ novel, A Tale of Two Cities, famously reminds us. “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way…” On one hand, as the new year begins, we have so much to celebrate. We are the most blessed generations in our People’s history. Never before has the vast majority of Jews lived in freedom and dignity, with the rights, privileges, protections and opportunities of citizenship in a democracy. Our achievements and contributions in nearly every field of endeavor are as impressive as they are disproportionate to our numbers. The State of Israel, too, is thriving, despite internal challenges, the determined efforts of its detractors, and the implacable hostility of its adversaries. Its economy is dynamic, its culture is vibrant, and its defense forces are strong, and every day seems 1 to yield Israeli innovations that benefit humanity.

  • Chosen for What?: Liberal-Jewish Crisis in the Wake of Black Power
    CHOSEN FOR WHAT?: LIBERAL-JEWISH CRISIS IN THE WAKE OF BLACK POWER A Senior Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in American Studies By Joshua S. Dostal Washington, D.C. April 19, 2017 Copyright © 2017 Joshua S. Dostal All rights reserved ii CHOSEN FOR WHAT?: LIBERAL-JEWISH CRISIS IN THE WAKE OF BLACK POWER Joshua S. Dostal Thesis Adviser: Terrence L. Johnson, Ph.D. ABSTRACT Despite years of research and hundreds of scholarly works that has been completed examining the relationship between the Black and American Jewish communities, relatively little has been done on mapping how internal discussions in the Jewish community changed as Civil Rights transformed. Many researchers have discussed Black and Jewish relations in terms of their ebbs and flows, i.e. when these two groups worked together and when they butted heads. However, while the research here tracks some changes in the Black-Jewish relationship, it locates itself primarily within the Jewish community rather than outside it. By examining the writings of liberal, politically active Jews in the mid-to-late 1960s, this work presents the ways in which, arguably the most important shift in the Civil Rights Movement, the emergence and dominance of Black Power, led to changes in Jewish understanding of the middle-class and American “whiteness.” These writings, particularly those of the American Jewish Congress, Rabbi Abraham Heschel, and Washington, D.C. area rabbi, Stanley Rabinowitz, show that Black Power ideology deeply affected the way liberal Jews felt about their place in white America.
