Class description

Jews and Blacks: This course considers some of the ways that Jews and Blacks in twentieth century America used the "other" to construct a sense of historic group identity. Looking at the period from the late 1920s to the 1960s, we will examine the frameworks through which Jews and Blacks have understood and imagined each other and the significance of mutual reflections for group relations.
