Well Worth Saving: American Universities' Life-and-Death Decisions on Refugees from Nazi Europe
A carefully researched and gripping narrative, Well Worth Saving comes at the moment we need to shine light on the implicit and explicit ways life-and-death decisions about immigration are made and encoded in policy and practice. When confronted with requests to rescue Nazi-threatened European Jewish scholars, American academic decision makers, refugee advocates, and State Department bureaucrats left a demoralizing record of how they assessed whi…
James and Esther Cooper Jackson: Love and Courage in the Black Freedom Movement
Invoking second-wave feminism's rallying cry that “the personal is the political,” in this “collective biography” of the sixty-six-year activist marriage of the black radicals James Jackson and Esther Cooper Jackson, Sara Rzeszutek Haviland's useful study illuminates the relationship of communist sensibilities to the twentieth-century African American freedom struggle. In keeping with the couple's primary allegiance to activism, the study reveals…

In Central and Eastern Europe today, there are probably no more than several hundred women who would self-identify as Romani women activists. Yet their influence is significant and growing, within and beyond the post-Soviet Romani rights movement. This essay focuses on an even smaller subset of this small group: those Romani women activists who are struggling to articulate their issues within the framework of women’s human rights and global femin…

Fight against Fear: Southern Jews and Black Civil Rights
Most of the growing literature on relations between blacks and Jews in the United States concentrates on the North and on organizations. Its driving concern is to make sense of what one title calls the “broken alliance”: the rift that emerged after the peak of the civil rights movement in the mid-1960s. Two new works shift attention away from the North to the South. Fight against Fear by Clive Webb traces southern Jews' thinking about race and ri…
