"Like every minority group, we have heroes and villains," Sanderson says."We've done things right, and we've done things wrong. In telling an hon- est story, we've had to deal with things that might make me, or somebody else, uncomfortable. Louis Brandeis, the first Jewish "[During the Civil War] in the South, Jews U.S. Supreme Court justice fought for the North and the South. Jews were on the right side and the wrong side. There were Jews in the South who had slaves. You can't tell the story about the South without telling both sides, and that's what we do in this series" Other negatives that enter into the scope of The Jewish Americans include references to Detroit. The anti-Semitism expressed by auto pioneer Henry Ford and Catholic clergyman and radio host Charles Coughlin is recalled. "I chose to write about Ford as a way of under- standing what the Jewish experience was like in the '20s and '30s with pervasive anti-Semitism',' says Grubin, who has won multiple Emmy Awards and has covered subjects from science to dance. "He [Ford] became emblematic of an attitude in the country then. It is sort of unbelievable Songwriter Irving Berlin, pictured today that someone so admired and idolized here in 1937 could be an anti-Semite. E "Father Coughlin used hatred to give himself power. There are still haters, but they can't get on the radio and say what he would say. That says something about how Americans are more tolerant and civilized" In whittling down the vast amount of infor- mation into six hours, Grubin had to leave out many Jewish Americans who helped impact life across the country. For example, there is an extensive section about songwriter Irving Berlin presented by singer-actor Mandy Patinkin, but the accomplishments of Aaron Copland, George Gershwin and other great composers are left out. "Berlin, who came from a home where only Yiddish was spoken and whose father was a can- tor, clearly wrote one of the greatest American songs, `God Bless America:" Sanderson says. "In the most profound Jewish way, he donated all the proceeds of that song to charity. Detroit slugger Hank Greenberg "Not only did he take the music from his Jewish background and create a great American song, but he gave away the proceeds of that song. America helped make Irving Berlin a great song- writer, and Irving Berlin gave back to America" Grubin, who has visited Michigan in the course of making other documentaries and for family summer vacations, has connected with this production on a personal level. "As a Jew, I feel my own place in the story as someone interested in learning," Grubin explains. "The Jew's tradition is about learning with study almost like prayer, and I love studying in that way. "As the film ends, a rabbi explains that we're no longer Jews because we're identified by some gov- ernment or people who want to ostracize based on religion. Today, we're Jews by choice." ❑ The Jewish Americans airs 9-11 p.m. Wednesdays, Jan. 9-23, on Detroit Public Television-Channel 56.
