The Arab-Israeli Conflict and Black-Jewish Relations

The author, Curtis J. Evans, argues that African Americans and images of black religion in American culture have been key to the development of American ideals and culture, as well as a reflection of the nation’s failures as a country. Throughout the text, Evans never truly offers any added narrative to the events in history he speaks on, but simply historicizes the burden that has been placed on black religion, and by natural extension, black people. He documents the changes in how black religion was viewed in America and how black America responded to these views.

The Arab/Israeli conflict is a conflict between the Arabs and the Jews over a small piece of land known as the holy land which is an area in the Middle East of the Arab world. The Arabs call the land Palestine, the Jews call it Israel but both religions have strong religious links with the land. There is conflict between the two religions because they both believe that the land belongs to them.

Racism and anti-Semitism are both still serious issues in the United States today. There are many people who would choose to disagree with this idea, however. They would argue that legislation to protect people has removed any kind of race-related tensions, but it does not appear that this is actually the case. In order to address the issue thoroughly and comprehensively, it is important to discuss the researcher's reasons for believing that racism and anti-Semitism are both still causing difficulties for many people in the US during the present day. Until clear knowledge of the issue is gained, it is not possible to adequately combat the problem and take steps to improve relations.

The problem of marginalization began with the waves of Jewish immigrants from Europe who fled the Russion pogroms and later the Nazis. In their homelands, these people were Jewish, but in America they had the opportunity to be white. In cementing their status as white, these Amnerican Jews further alienated the small minority of Jews of African descent and others who do not fit nicely into the white race group. Despite this, the black Jews of America share a diverse cultural history that is both African and Jewish.

The discriminating social stratification in 1950’s developed a set of servile behavior on the blacks. They were thought to be inferior to whites, and were treated accordingly. Moreover, different parts of the country had various ranges of sensitivities while dealing with the blacks. For example, in Mississippi things were particularly tense after the Parker lynch case. No black man would dare look into any white man’s eyes in fear of the repercussions. On the bus, a man warned Griffin to watch himself closely until he caught onto Mississippi’s ways. In an extreme case like this, it was vital to learn about their roles and behave accordingly.

In "On Black-Jewish Relations" Essay, Cornel West starts by analyzing the reasoning for why Black-Jewish relations in the United States seem to be deteriorating over the years. These ongoing competitive fights are called Black Anti-Semitism and Jewish Anti-Black Racism. Consequently, West points out that both Jewish and African-Americans have come from a hard past where they have experienced oppression, humiliation and discrimination many times by other ethnic and/or racial groups. West then alleges that at one time, African-American and Jewish leaders like Martin Luther King and Abraham Joshua Heschel worked for this problem and decided to form alliances between the two ethnic groups. Unfortunately, this “strong helping relationship” was totally unsuccessful and the two ethnic groups went opposite direction, making the tension between them rise steeply.

“The Negro, too, for his part, has idols of the tribe to smash. If on the one hand the white man has erred in making the Negro appear to be that which would excuse or extenuate his treatment of him, the Negro, in turn, has too often unnecessarily excused himself because of the way he has been treated. The

Destructive images and negative rhetoric became powerful representation of blacks that began to disseminate across the world as early as the colonial years of settlement of the late 16th century. The Negro’s representation of being destructive and negative was by far the catalyst that fueled whites with hatred for the African and these representations are considered powerful because it is the images themselves that further made it possible to allow white people to justify the cruel treatment of the Negro in America. Throughout history the Negro has also suffered from vagrancy laws, the black codes, and Jim crow (segregation) but nothing seemed to compare to the black image of inferiority that proved to be the most successful tool of propaganda within the institution of racism. Images such as servile, primitive, and simpleminded just to name a few were used to degrade Africans and it is these images that have influenced the dialog of the black leaders throughout history. My argument will discuss the psychological effects of such negative imagery of the Negro and its powerful effect on black leaders such as Dubois, Washington, and Woodson.

There was considerable variation in the beliefs and sentiments towards the Jewish population in the years preceding the Holocaust. While it has been said that Hitler’s fascist racism found its root in traditional Catholic anti-Semitism, it is undeniable that both forms of anti-Semitism were anti-Jewish. However, not all Europeans shared Hitler’s views and this led to the existence of various degrees of anti-Jewish sentiments throughout Europe. Additionally, the change in leadership of the Church that occurred during the years of the Holocaust also caused some variance in opinion on this matter. At the onset of the Holocaust, Pope Pius XI was the head of the Church. During his final years, he had taken

The Arab-Israeli conflict has sparked massive controversy because of many characters that have terrorized countless cities. Some are crazy and do whatever to help their country and some like Menachem Begin have the wisdom to make wise choices. It isn't very wise to strike terrorism in a country but rather make both sides agree to end the conflict or else the cycle starts over again. Leaders like Menachem Begin have became wise and know that violence is not the answer to solving a problem. Menachem Begin was a Leader that had a dark past but now knows that peace is the way to solve a country’s problem.

The Middle East has long been home to very deep-rooted conflict. For too long, the citizens of the Middle East have lived in the central of death and fear. The animosity between few, takes the hope of hundreds. The Arab-Israeli-Palestinian conflict is most notably the largest issue preventing peace in the Middle East, but it is by no means the only issue. The issue of bankrolling and foreign aid are also issues preventing peace; because the U.S provides so much funding and foreign aid to certain countries, it is in some sense encouraging them to continue acting the way they act now and not change for the better of the region. It is also making the U.S look biased and can potentially cause issues for America in the long run, if they haven’t already. There is also the conflict of the Persian Gulf; the importance of these “new” resources and how it could affect the world economy and also the balancing of powers in the Persian Gulf; The U.S and the Middle Eastern nations will need to work to together to bring about security and stability into the Persian Gulf and hopefully it can overflow to the Middle East as well.

The current conflict in the Middle East between the Israeli Jews and the Palestinian Arabs has many historical roots.
