Mr. Gad-Harf pointed to the 1987 march on Washing- ton for Soviet Jewry as a lesson in non-violent action the Jewish community learned from Dr. King. What concerns Mr. Gad- Hart though, is a continued growth in separatism bet- ween races and ethnic groups that he's seen since Dr. King's death. He said part of that separatism is positive because of a growth in self-pride and self- reliance. It has, however, also led to extremism in some communities who publicly discourage col- laboration with other groups. "It seems like there's much less unity in the black community today," said Mr. Gad-Harf. "When Martin Luther King was alive, he was looked on by most blacks as their leader. There's no one today that comes close to matching his level of grass-roots leader- ship." When Dr. King was alive, the issues the faced were "His messages of non-violent protest and standing up for one's personal and civil rights have really affected us all." David Gad-Harf about civil equality, Mr. Gad-Haff said. These issues included rights to vote, to at- tend public schools and even to eat in a restaurant of choice. Today, the issues fall into more of a gray area. "There's broad recognition within the black community that the challenges they are facing have to be dealt with by their own community," Mr. Gad-Harf said. "While they'd appreciate partner- ships, they have to take care of their own future." Rabbi Nelson can re- member a day from his pulpit in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, when he wasn't sure what, after Dr. King, the future would bring in terms of race relations. The day Dr. King was buried, Rabbi Nelson officiated at the wed- ding of two Peace Corps workers. The next day, on the front page of the area's daily newspaper was a photo of Dr. King's funeral.
