U American Heart Association WE'RE FIGHTING FOR YOUR LIFE New York (JTA) — The new president of the Urban League has taken a fresh stand on black- Jewish relations, praising Jews as "longstanding allies" of the African American community and mapping out an inclusive road to black empowerment. Hugh Price, who became pres- ident and CEO of the black civil rights group on July 5, said in a recent speech that a weakened economy and a lack of communal infrastructure — not white racism — are the major obstacles confronting poor blacks in the United States. And at a time of heightened tensions between black and Jew- ish groups, Price stressed that Jews have been key players in the civil rights struggle. "Many whites of good will have accompanied us on our long jour- ney for racial, social and economic justice," Mr. Price said. "None has matched the Jew- ish community as long distance runners in the civil rights move- ment." Mr. Price, 52, a former mem- ber of the New York Times edito- rial board, was a senior officer at the Rockefeller Foundation be- fore joining the Urban League, a group traditionally supported by the black middle class. In his keynote address to the Urban League's national con- vention in Indianapolis on July 24, Mr. Price said that looking at social and economic problems ex- clusively through the filter of race is simply bad business. In his speech, Mr. Price called on middle-class blacks to fund "prevention strategies" in the in- ner cities, including a youth de- velopment fund, and to work within the African American community for economic self-suf- ficiency. In a clear reference to Nation of Islam leader Minister Louis Farrakhan, whose incendiary racist and anti-Semitic state- ments have been the subject of recent controversy, Mr. Price stressed the need to denounce racism wherever it occurs. In another reference to Mr. Farrakhan, Mr. Price defended the right of African Americans to dialogue with all black groups, even those who espouse racist or anti-Semitic ideas. He said the sheer magnitude of the problems facing the black ( community make such dialogues imperative. Mr. Price acknowledged that recent tensions between blacks and Jews are real. He stressed the need to lower the decibel lev- el" of discussions. In a telephone interview this week, Mr. Price said it is impor- tant to move debate from the op- ed pages of newspapers to closed-door meetings between black and Jewish groups. Amid concern over the grow- ing appeal of separatist and anti- Semitic messages in the black community, Jewish leaders warmly welcomed Mr. Price's re- marks. Jewish Judge Presides At War-Crimes Tribunal Johannesburg (JTA) — Nearly 50 years after the Nuremberg war trials, a Jewish judge from South Africa has been appointed to serve as chief prosecutor of the United Nations tribunal on war crimes in the former Yugoslavia. But Judge Richard Goldstone, who has long played a leadership role in South Africa's Jewish com- munity, feels that his Jewishness is irrelevant to his appointment. Rather, he sees it as a reflec- tion of the speed with which the world community is reaching out to South Africa in the wake of the country's first all-race elections in April. "My being Jewish does not af- fect my attitude and feelings to- ward the appointment," he said in a recent interview. "At the same time, the upholding of hu- man rights is something I regard as crucially important." Judge Goldstone, who was named to the Balkan tribunal by the U.N. Security Council in ear- ly July, will head the first inter- national war-crimes prosecution since the Nuremberg and Tokyo trials were convened after World War II. Judge Goldstone, who at the time referred to his appointment as "a great honor," said it was "an illustration of how quickly South Africa has been readmitted into the international community. "It's a wonderful feeling that South Africans can again con- tribute to the international or- ganizations in many parts of the world," he said.
