| Sumario: | These wide-ranging essays reveal the various roles played by southern rabbis in the struggle for black civil rights since ReconstructionThe study of black-Jewish relations has become a hotbed of controversy, especially with regard to the role played by Jewish leaders during the Civil Rights movement.
