The Price of Whiteness: Jews, Race, and American Identity
Eric L. Goldstein
The Price of Whiteness documents the uneasy place Jews have held in America’s racial culture since the late nineteenth century. The book traces Jews’ often tumultuous encounter with race from the 1870s through World War II, when they became vested as part of America’s white mainstream and abandoned the practice of describing themselves in racial terms.

On Racial Justice: A Letter From Billie Holiday Theatre Artistic Director Dr. Indira Etwaroo
Dr. Indira Etwaroo
