college students seeking to
preserve an old Jewish
cemetery and others begging
for books so they can teach
Hebrew — these were the
lasting impressions described
by Detroiters who visited
there.
Joel Shapiro spoke of a
refusenik named Mikhail in
Leningrad: "He's been trying
for 14 years to get out. He
said they'd taken everything
from him already, what else
could they do to him?"
"What I took away from the
Soviet experience," said Mark
Schlussel, "was that a group
of people at great personal
risk were announcing their
Jewish beliefs."
National Jubilee Chairman
David Hermelin, whose
spirited leadership took a
thousand Americans through
a rigorous agenda of remem-
brance, celebration and study,
made special note of his
fellow Detroiters — one of the
largest delegations in the en-
tire mission. After his ex-
periences in the Soviet Union
and Israel, "I'm going home
charged up — and convinced
we can make a difference," he
said.
lb prove that Detroiters will
do just that, Joel D. Tauber,
Jubilee Mission campaign
chairman, announced that
local participants pledged
$1,950,000 to the 1989 Allied
Jewish Campaign — $400,000
more than they pledged last
year. In addition, they pledg-
ed $485,000 for Project
Renewal.
Charlotte Dubin is public relations
director of the Jewish Welfare
Fededration of Detroit.
