Dr. Gelb stressed in the study that "in the politi- cal arena, where the real interests of communities emerge, Jews' and blacks continue to work to- gether because their goals and ideals make them natural coalition partners," She predicted that "because blacks and Jews remain the most loyal members of the his- toric liberal coalition of the 1960s, supporting similar social goals to a greater degree than other groups, they will con- tinue to rely on one an- , other for mutual support in the future." She cited similar voting patterns by black and Jewish members of Con- gress on jobs, welfare re- form, housing, health in- surance and voting rights. In addition, she declared, black Congressmen have almost unanimously sup- ported pro-Israel positions, while Jewish Congressmen have provided unusually strong backing on issues of concern to blacks.

She declared there are still "many areas of con- tention" about "ques- tions of ethnic succession to Power, particularly in relation to quotas and re- verse discrimination, the relationship of Israel to Africa, and differences in the agendas for each community." However, she added, "these areas of conflict, as important as they are, should not be allowed to overwhelm the more poten- tially positive aspects of an historically important rela- tionship between blacks and Jews" in America.
