The Death of an American Jewish Community: A Tragedy of Good Intentions
ISBN: 9780029138663 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In 1967, leaders of the Boston establishment decided to open the city's neighbourhoods by making mortgage funds available to blacks who wanted to build or buy houses there. But this goal was to be achieved by the private understanding that these mortgages would be available only in Boston's established Jewish neighbourhoods, such as Mattapan. This policy quickly wiped out the tightly knit Jewish areas in Dorchester and nearby Roxbury, once home to 90,000 Jews. Tragically, few of the new black residents of the area acquired adequate housing, security or education for their families, and the...

Beyond Belief: The American Press And The Coming Of The Holocaust, 1933- 1945
ISBN: 9780029191613 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this book, Deborah Lipstadt argues that, from 1933 to 1945, the American press failed to treat the destruction of European Jews as urgent news. When newspaper did report on the horrors being perpetrated, they adopted a skeptical posture, burying small stories with ambiguous headlines on inside pages. Lipstadt documents how the demand for objectivity, the cynicism or gullibility of reporters, the incredulity of editors, and an atmosphere of isolationism helped to shape the news - and influenced policymakers who might have saved countless lives.
