A Exercise regularly. WE RE FIGHTING Ent? YOUR American Heart Association didn't care about their Jewishness." Colman noted that American Jewry did not realize the values Soviet Jews placed on family, culture, art and education. He said that acculturation must be blended with resettlement, that Soviet Jews should be encouraged to sustain their cultural background, and that they should be made part of the decision making process regarding programs on their behalf. Dr. Misha Galperin, direc- tor of refugees at the New York Federation and himself an emigrant from the USSR in the 1970s, emphasized that Soviet Jews who came to the United States at that time failed to acculturate American Jews "as to who we were." "Russian Jews are no less Jewish than AmeriCan Jews," he said. "In some ways they are different and in some ways they are the same." He said Soviet Jews= are less likely to -join a synagogue but participate in life-cycle events, from bris to Jewish funerals. In terms of identity, Soviet Jews feel Jewish all of their lives until they come to America and are perceived of as "Russians," Dr. Galperin said. He closed by asserting that the mood in the USSR now, with its rise in nationalism and openly expressed anti-Semitism, is analogous to Germany, 1933, and that every effort must be made to bring Soviet Jews out "before the third largest Jewish com- munity in the world disap- pears." I=1 The Debate Resumes Over. Anti-Semitism Associate Editor 6600 West Maple Road West Bloomfield The Jewish teachers of Metropolitan Detroit are grateful to Dr. Patricia Oppenheim Levin and the David Oppenheim family for establishing a special teachers' institute of the enhancement of Jewish education. if Jews in the USSR see that a major campaign is under way to improve the aliyah and absorption process, more of them will choose to come to Israel when they emigrate. Attorney General Richard Thornburgh, addressing the G.A., asserted that the Soviets will have to do more than enact emigration reforms if they want to win trade concessions from the U.S. But at the same time he said that "we had best rec- ognize — and do everything we can to capitalize on — the extraordinary changes that are taking place" in the USSR. The Attorney General, who recently visited -the Soviet Union with two Council of Jewish Federa- tions officials, said, "We must be convinced that not just the letter but the spirit of the law has taken root in the Soviet Union, before any relief" under the 1974 Jackson-Vanik Amendment on trade privileges "is put on the agenda." At one of the dozens of ses- sions devoted to the topic of Soviet Jewry resettlement, several experts focused on the acculturation process and the need to absorb the newcomers Jewishly.' John Colman, president of the Jewish Federation of Metropolitan Chicago, said that in the 1970s American Jewry failed in its effort to make Soviet Jewish emigrants "in our image and to be like us. "We thought they would be glad to throw off their Russian-ness and we didn't think they had anything to teach us, Most shamefully, we judged them and felt they year ago, an angry audience chastised researcher Steven Cohen for asserting that an- ti-Semitism was not a threat to the Jewish community in the United States. Choosing his words carefully, American Jewish Committee researcher David Singer backed Cohen's assessment before a similar audience at the Council of Jewish Federations General Assembly last week. He had much the same result. "There is a contradiction between perception (of anti- Semitism) and documenta- tion, between attitudes and behavior, Singer said. He said levels of anti-Semitism are at historic lows, and cited the following to sup- port his thesis: •The role of Jews in the po- litical process is at an un- precedented level in the United States. Jews are less than three percent of the population, but are a con- siderably greater percentage of the persons elected to Congress. "And many are coming from districts with a small percentage of Jews," he said. • In the largely white, Anglo-Saxon, Protestant Ivy
