Earl Raab: Multiculturalist in America, Zionist in Israel

Highlights:

“The Census Bureau has just reported that about half of the American population will soon be non-white or non-European. And they will all be American citizens. We have tipped beyond the point where a Nazi-Aryan party will be able to prevail in this country. We have been nourishing the American climate of opposition to bigotry for about half a century. That climate has not yet been perfected, but the heterogeneous nature of our population tends to make it irreversible — and makes our constitutional constraints against bigotry more practical than ever. (Earl Raab, Jewish Bulletin, February 19, p. 23)

“It was only after World War II that immigration law was drastically changed … In one of the first pieces of evidence of its political coming-of-age, the Jewish community had a leadership role in effecting those changes.” (Earl Raab, Jewish Bulletin, July 23, 1993, p. 17)

“For me, just being in Jerusalem is spiritual. From the appearance of the sky, which seems to me to curve over the city, to the ancient kind of evidence that is there. I felt that way the first time I was there, and I’ve had that feeling on occasions since. The first time was in the 60’s. I had a sense I was in a different place, a spiritual place that stretched back to the beginning of history, of Jewish history. If I sat down and tried to figure out exactly what it is that gave me that feeling, I don’t think I could. It was just a sensation I felt right away.” (Earl Raab, online Hadassah Magazine)

“If America is losing its leadership edge and resolve [to protect Israel], then we are all in trouble. This is where and why America’s Jews must remain focused on Israel.” (Earl Raab, Jewish Bulletin of Northern California, October 30, 1998)

The ADL’s Earl Raab served for thirty-five years as Executive Director of the San Francisco Jewish Community Relations Council and is currently Director of the Perlmutter Institute for Jewish Advocacy at Brandeis University. Raab, like most Jews and all Jewish organizations, promotes multiracialism and Third World immigration in the United States and other majority-White nations, while supporting Jewish racialism (aka Zionism) and a Jews-only immigration policy in Israel.
