Book by Geoffrey Levin recovers the history of American Jewish dissent on Israel and Palestine from 1948 to 1978, documenting voices within the American Jewish community that criticized the Nakba, challenged uncritical support for Israeli policies, and advocated for Palestinian rights at a time when such dissent was marginalized. Levin draws on Jewish communal archives to show that American Jewish opinion on Palestine was more contested than commonly assumed. An important historical resource for researchers studying American Jewish political history, the suppression of pro-Palestinian voices within US Jewish institutional life, and the history of dissent on Israel-Palestine within American Jewish communities from 1948 to 1978.
