The Death of an American Jewish Community: A Tragedy of Good Intentions Paperback - 1993
by Hillel Levine; Lawrence Harmon
In 1967, city leaders decided to open Boston's established Jewish neighborhoods to blacks, making mortgage funds available to those who wanted to buy or build houses there. This policy quickly wiped out some tightly-knit Jewish areas and, sadly, few of the new residents acquired the adequate housing, security, or education which the move was meant to accomplish. Photos.
From the rear cover
'The Death Of An American Jewish Community: A Tragedy of Good Intentions, ' with much of its concentration on the policies of banks and real estate interests on ethnic communities in the 1960s, should help fill in the time line and develop an focus on ethnic relations and urban affairs more in the social structural direction.
