Book Synopsis The First to Cry Down Injustice by : Ellen Eisenberg
Book excerpt: Although American Jews had already embraced the principle of fighting prejudice in all forms, western Jews often did not apply it to specific local issues involving Japanese Americans during World War II. In The First to Cry Down Injustice?, Eisenberg analyzes the range of Jewish responses--including silence, opposition to, and support for the policy--to the mass removal of Japanese Americans as the product of a distinctive western ethnic landscape.
