Kunian was
2 years old when
Leo Frank, an
Atlanta Jewish
factory supervisor,
was lynched by an an-
gry mob in 1915. Mr.
Kunian grew up hear-
ing about the Frank
case — that Frank
was wrongly convict-
ed of murdering a 13-
year-old employee
and that, during the
trial, hysterical
crowds outside the
courtroom chanted,
"Kill the Jew or we'll
kill you."
"I heard all the dis-
cussion of the case,
and understood the
fear of the Jews," Mr.
Kunian, a lawyer who
worked for Frank's
posthumous pardon
in 1986, told a crowd
of 150 people at a
memorial marking 80
years since Frank's
murder. "The purpose of today is
to commemorate the anniversary
[of Frank's lynching], and also to
commemorate and be thankful
for the vigilance, faith and
courage of the Jews of Georgia."
An asphalt parking lot and a
tall, brick office building have
since replaced the grassy field in
Marietta where Frank lived his
last moments. But Georgia's Jew-
ish community has not been so
quick to forget the tragic injus-
tice and rampant anti-Semitism
that surrounded the Frank case.
As cars roared by on a near-
by highway overpass, rabbis,
Anti-Defamation League mem-
bers who orchestrated the par-
don and other Atlanta-area Jews
gathered at the site for the first
time.
"Any Jew who lives in Cobb
County hears the story of Leo
Frank and is interested in it,"
said Rabbi Steven Lebow of Tem-
ple Kol Emeth, who organized
the ceremony with Rabbis
Shalom Lewis of Congregation
Etz Chaim and Ruvi New of Con-
gregation Beis Chayeinu, all of
Cobb County. "This gives the
message of Jewish unity, that we
need to stand together in the face
of bigotry. Leo Frank was inno-
cent, and he deserves to be re-
membered. He deserves to have
kaddish said for him."
In 1913, Gov. John M. Slaton
had doubts about Mr. Frank's
guilt, and commuted his death
sentence to life in prison. Because
many in the community thought
Mr. Frank should hang, the gov-
ernor ruined his political career
and suffered numerous death
threats.
Marvin Goldstein, who was
president of the Atlanta Jewish
Federation and an ADL member
when Frank was pardoned, said
Mr. Slaton "deserves the thanks
of the Jewish community for tak-
ing a role he knew was danger-
ous."
On Aug. 16, 1915, Mr. Frank
was taken by force from prison
and lynched. A few weeks later,
a group called the Knights of
Mary Phagan, which became the
Ku Klux Klan, burned a cross in
Stone Mountain. And across the
country, Jewish businesspeople
formed the ADL to combat anti-
Semitism and bigotry, the chair-
man of ADL's Southeast board,
Dale Schwartz, told the crowd.
Rabbi New said that although
the pardon of Frank in 1986 does
not right the wrongs of the past,
Jews today must learn from the
trauma of the case to strengthen
their Jewish identities.
"We must allow ourselves the
opportunity to recall that which
our forefathers have done and
utilize their mistakes and
strengths as guides for future ac-
tions," the Orthodox rabbi told
the gathering before leading the
traditional prayer for the dead,
"El Malei Rachamim."
"It is simple. Leo Frank died
because he was Jew. That be-
hooves us to live more Jewishly,"
Rabbi New said.
