Speaker to talk about
groups' racial tensions
By KIRSTEN LEE SWARTZ
Collegian Staff Writer
A black Jewish man will speak
about the historical and current ten
sions between black and Jewish com
munities at 7:30 tonight in
Eisenhower Chapel's Memorial
Lounge.
Julius Lester is the former field
secretary for the Student Non-Vio
lence Coordinating Committee, a ma
jor student organization in the 1960's
civil rights movement. He currently
teaches Afro-American Studies and
the Near Eastern and Judaic Studies
Program at the University of Massa
chusetts/Amherst.
Sponsored by the Office of Reli
gious Affairs, the program, entitled
"Blacks and Jews in Dialogue," is the
result of committee of eight faculty
and staff members formed last
spring to examine tensions between
the two communities at the Universi
ty, said Thomas Poole, director of
Eisenhower Chapel.
"It is important for black and Jew
ish students to sit down in a room and
explore the issues first hand," Poole
said.

Robeson Cultural Center said the
shared history of victimization is
partly responsible for the tensions
between the two groups.
Tensions also exist because of the
role of Jewish-controlled institutions
in perpetuating racial stereotypes,
and the political relationship of Israel
to southern Africa.
Bernard Bronstein, an advisor in
the Division of Undergraduate Stud
ies, said students showing prejudice
to one another often are acting out of
a historical ignorance.
"Both the black students and the
Jewish students have an ignorance
not only of the other group's history
but of their own," Bronstein said.
Author of about 13 books, including
Look Out, Whitey! Black Power's
Gon' Get Your Mama, Lester has
published more than 100 essays and
reviews in publications including,
The New York Times Op-Ed Page,
The New Republic,Ms. Magazine,
Explorations in Judaism, and Re
constructionist.
His most recent book is The Adven
tures of Brer Rabbit, the first of four
volumes retelling the Tales of Uncle
Remus. Forthcoming is Lovesong:
Becoming A Jew.
