Hard-Line Approach

Continued from Page 7

If black leaders had settled
for letters to the editor,
debates on the morality of
segregation or Op-Ed articles,
we would still have separate
bathrooms for blacks and,
whites. We would still have
segregated schools.
Blacks not only won the
rights which constitution-
ally they deserved and which
by any measure of human
decency was their right, but
they created a psychology
that racism was not only
wrong but would be attacked
and challenged whenever
possible.
They have learned what it
takes and they are not reluc-
tant to act accordingly. But
Jews as a people always have
failed to participate in a
policy of what might be call-
ed confrontation.
We like to intellectualize,
but hatred and bigotry are
immune from intellectual
debate. We have practiced ap-
peasement, but bigots cannot
be appeased.
We try hard not to offend;
we try desperately to reason
with the unreasonable. We
don't want to make trouble.
We worry about what they'll
think of us.
Jews throughout our
history have never launched
a movement of confrontation
As a result, the anti-Semites
have enjoyed immunity from
being challenged. They
recognize that Jews will not
embarrass them publicly and,
thus, they continue to thrive.
We need to change all that.
We need to confront, attack,
embarrass. We need to make
the haters pay.
It is time to take the kind
of steps necessary which will
force the anti-Semites to look
their own bigotry in the eye.
It is time to force those
leaders, who stand idly by
when their constituents in-
cite hatred, to act or risk em-
barrassment or pay a political
and economic price.
Consider the issue of the
Carmelite Convent at
Auschwitz. What an insult to
human dignity and desecra-
tion of those who suffered and
died in that hell that we even
had to argue that the convent
be moved. It was unseemly
that we had to debate the
issue with, of all institutions,
the church.
The intellectual arguments
and appeals failed. What
succeeded?
A small band of Jewish ac-
tivists climbed the barriers,
drawing the world's attention
to this indignity and succeed-.
ed in bringing to the table the
insensitivity of those who op-
posed moving the convent.
In the end, dignity prevail-
ed. I am not suggesting that

these activists were totally
responsible for the ultimate
decision. But they succeeded,
as many of us remember, in
bringing out into the open
some of the unsettling private
thoughts of church officials.
When Louis Farrakhan
spoke at Michigan State
University, subsidized in part
by a state university, where
where the voices of protest?
Yes, there were some but
hardly a loud and forceful
Jewish voice, one which could
have made a difference.
We should have protested
with such force as to assure
that never again will an in-
stitution of a higher learning
permit itself to be used in
such a manner.
On two occasions that I
can recall in recent times
have we spoken out and
spoken out with uncom-
promising commitment.
Once, more than 200,000
Jews converged on the na-
tion's Capitol to plead for
Soviet Jewry. The other time,

We must speak
with
uncompromising
commitment.

President Reagan did not
understand the implications
of his own actions and we as
a people protested his visit to
Bitburg.
In our protests, we gave our
people and the world a much
needed shot of moral
adrenalin, and it was an in-
dication of what we can ac-
complish when we unite and
speak — loudly — in one voice.
Following the discovery in
1945 of man's most ghastly
crime, we created the
philosophy of Zachor —
remember.
I share the philosophy of
zachor; I believe we must
remember. But let us not be
misled by a false air of con-
fidence that remembering is
all that is needed. The world
remembers but repeats its
crimes nevertheless.
Yes, we must remember, but
we must do more. We must
confront; we must attack; we
must speak out; we must
challenge; we must provoke.
We must stand up for
ourselves if for no other
reason than self-respect.
Others will not take up our
cause. We have to do it
ourselves.
Let us merge the concept of
Never Again with No More.
No more, no more. Let us
say it loud and clear and
decide as a people that we
will do what is necessary to
assure the reality of "no
more."
