HERSHKOVITZ & STAFF WISH THE ENTIRE JEWISH COMMUNITY A HAPPY & HEALTHY NEW YEAR B&H Travel, Inc. 358-3320 24700 Northwestern Highway civil rights movement led by my husband was based mostly on self-interest. It is true that it is in the self- interest of minorities to join, together to insure their sur- vival, but Jewish support of black Americans in their struggle for equality has always transcended the dic- tates of political expe- diency. From the earliest days of the civil rights move- ment to the present day, blacks have counted on the support of the Jewish community. A number of my husband's closest al- lies, some, of whom have dedicated an entire lifetime to the movement for racial equality, were Jews . . . There can be no doubt that this commit- ment was based on fun- damental human de- cency and not simple self-interest. "In recent years, how- ever, many observers have noted a deterioration of black-Jewish relations. Large Islamic populations in many African countries and growing numbers of black Americans who have joined the Islamic faith has prompted some increase in identification with the cause of the Palestinian Arabs. "Others saw a fundamen- tal conflict of interest emerge in the Bakke case and the question of affirma- tive action in general . . . . "Finally, the recent furor over Andrew Young's res- ignation from his post at the United Nations is seen by many as cause for a serious split between blacks and Jews. The responsible black leadership has always stood fast for the right of Israelis to a homeland and peace with security and will con- tinue to do so. I have faith that the responsible Jewish leaders will continue to support the struggle of blacks for racial justice. "But there is another, larger issue at stake. It is a universal principle that applies to all political conflict — between the people of Northern Ire- land and the British, the struggle in Southern Af- rica as well as to the con- flict between Israelis and Palestinian Arabs. It is the principle of open communication that is essential for nonviolent reconciliation ... . "We, who deeply believe in the nonviolent method can never condone a policy of non-communication with political opponents. There can be no hope of peace without a • willingness to talk. "I know that I am not alone in this belief. It was recently reported that a number of prominent American Jews like Philip Klutznick, Nahum Goldmann, George Gruen and Herman Edelsberg met with PLO representatives. "For many years I have worked closely with Jewish In Living Color WHILE YOU WAIT READY IN MINUTES groups on common issues like full employment and discrimination. I am deeply committed to the world- wide struggle of Jews and all people for human rights. I have served as honorary chairperson of The Women's Plea for Soviet Jewry in At- lanta because I believe, as my husband, said, We are all tied together in a single garment of destiny.' "It is my sincerest hope that black and Jewish Americans will continue to respect each other's right to formulate independent policies even as we join to- gether in our mutual quest for social decency and jus- tice."
