Description

In this seminal book, award-winning filmmaker, civil rights attorney, and television personality, Brooke Goldstein, offers a groundbreaking and pragmatic strategy for ending Jew-hatred globally. What Saul Alinskys Rules for Radicals was for progressives, End Jew Hatred is for the Jewish community and its allies.

Thousands of books have documented the victimization of Jews over the centuries. This is not one of those books. This book is about ending the worlds oldest hatred against the worlds most persecuted community.

End Jew Hatred shows how we can affect real and lasting change by championing the Jewish cause as a minority rights issue. By harnessing the power of grassroots mobilization, direct action, and legal activism, Goldstein provides a historically unprecedented handbook on how the Jewish community can move from defensive to offensive advocacy, and effect real lasting change.

Through her experience as a civil rights attorney at The Lawfare Project, a filmmaker, and as the founder of the End Jew Hatred movement, author Brooke Goldstein offers an unparalleled deep dive into the civil rights cases she has fought to illustrate how impact litigation paired with social rights activism can be used to combat anti-Jewish discrimination and set a new precedent of Jewish empowerment.

Furthermore, Goldstein conducts a comprehensive study of social justice movements like the civil rights movement of the 1950s and 60s, the Black Lives Matter movement, the New Womens Movement, End Asian Hate movement, and the LGBTQIA+ movement, and argues that adopting their tactics, language, and organization can enact lasting meaningful change for Jews everywhere.Shechallenges the top-down approach traditionally used by Jewish communal leadership, arguing for adaptation with the times, and demonstrates how a bottom-up, decentralized strategy aimed at recruiting and rising up local activists is the future of Jewish advocacy.

We are living in an unprecedented age of progress in the fight for minority rightsa historic crossroads. End Jew Hatred underscores the need for a seismic shift in strategy away from pro-Israel advocacy and towards awakening a Jewish civil rights movement.

This is a book about securing the fundamental human right of Jewish people to live as equals, everywhere, regardless of conflicts happening in the Middle East. It is a clarion call for upending the status quo and disrupting the cycle of hatred; for drawing a new blueprint and tossing out existing structures; for unity; for diverting the nature of human hate and changing the course of history for the better.

While activists in the #MeToo and Black Lives Matter movements have made great strides, there has never been a unified and coordinated Jewish civil rights coalition in the West. The plight of the Jewish community must not be overlooked. In this moment in history, the world is uniquely positioned to finally extinguish the flames of antisemitism so Jews can claim their right to life and be treated equally and fairly around the world.

Make no mistake: Ending Jew hatred is the civil rights issue of our lifetime.

I have spent my life working to advance the interests of the Jewish community, heading the Conference on Soviet Jewry, the Jewish Community Relations Council of Greater New York (JCR-NY), and the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations. In that latter role, I got to know Brooke and collaborate with her, seeing her couple strategic litigation with grassroots mobilization presenting pro-Jewish advocacy as a minority rights/civil rights issue. Her book, End Jew Hatred: A Manual for Mobilization, highlights what can be done to spare future generations the trials and tribulations we have endured, and positively impact the Jewish people by ending Jew-hatred in our lifetime. This is essential reading for anyone committed to fighting this ages-old scourge and countering the extremist bigotry spreading in our country.
