New Book Details Problems
of the U.S. Jewish Community
"American Jewry is now en-
tering the most perilous per-
iod in the three-and-one-
quarter-century history of
Jewish life in America."
So begins Gerald S. Stro-
ber's "American Jews: Corn-
muniti in Crisis," which has
been published by. Double-
day. The book holds Ameri-
can Jewish society and its
communal organizations up to
a magnifying glass, and ex-
amines them bit by bit.
Strober, who will be speak-
ing 10 a.m. Nov. 11 at the
Jewish Center Book Fair on
anti-Sei'nitism in America,
has been a member of the
interreligious affairs depart-
ment of the American Jewish
Committee for the past five
years.
Major chapters in his book
deal in-depth with such top-
ics as: Israel and American
Jews; Soviet Jewry; Ameri-
can Jews and Christian com-
munity; blacks, Jews and
the urban crisis; the Jewish
Defense League; Jews and
American elections and Jew-
ish survival in America.
Each subject is analyzed
in detail, and Strober does
not hold back from what he
hopes is constructive criti-
cism of Jewish communal
agencies, the synagogues,
Jewish adults and youth.
Many points are strictly
personal opinion, but Strober
marshals hundreds of facts in
a well written, but sometimes
poorly edited volume before
presenting his outlook.
Although he is generally
critical, and as his title
states he believes the Jewish
community is in crisis, Stro-
ber works hard to make his
criticism constructive.
Strober states at the end
of his book: "The capacity
of the American Jewish corn-
munity to effectively respond
to the problems already lying
on the near horizon will soon
be severely tested.
"In the light of the Jewish
establishment's reactions to
manifestations of anti-Semi-
tism in the late 1960s and
early 1970s, I am not partic-
ularly sanguine about the
possibilities of 136th a real-
istic assessment of the prob-
lem and the developinent of
an effective program' to deal
with the threat to Jewish sec-
urity in America.
Strober continues, "In such
a time institutional rivalries,
community jealousies, compe-
petitions over preogatives and
turfs, along with barriers to
effective a c t i o n resulting
from class and religious dis-
tinctions must give way to
a new, radical and universal-
ly operative committment to
Jewish continuity and sur-
vival."
The veracity of Strober's
work is enhanced by his close
personal contact with many
of the people and organiza-
tions he describes. Many per-
sonal anecdotes are included
in the volume.
He converted from Judaism
to Christianity at age 18, and
is a Presbyterian minister.
He is currently considering
re-conversion.
"American Jews: Com-
munity in Crisis" will not
stand as a masterpiece for
all time because it is writ-
ten for one time — now.
Many parts of the book will
be quickly outdated by un-
folding events.
But Strober's analysis of
the American Jewish com-
munity and the problems
that are facing it make his
volume a powerful documen-
tation of what is right and
wrong with Jewish society in
the U.S. today. —A.H.
