From the AJC website:
http://www.ajc.org on May 10, 2012:
"American Jewish Committee (AJC), established in 1906 by a small group
of American Jews deeply concerned about pogroms aimed at Russian Jews,
determined that the best way to protect Jewish populations in danger would be
to work towards a world in which all peoples were accorded respect and dignity.
Over 100 years later, AJC continues its efforts to promote
pluralistic and democratic societies where all minorities are protected. AJC is
an international think tank and advocacy organization that attempts to identify
trends and problems early - and take action. The key areas of focus are:
• Combating anti-Semitism and all forms of bigotry;
• Promoting pluralism and shared democratic values;
• Supporting Israel's quest for peace and security;
• Advocating for energy independence;
• Strengthening Jewish life. "
The Buffalo/Niagara Chapter
The Buffalo/Niagara Chapter was created in 1943 and disbanded in 2007.
It was described in the brochure Shalom Buffalo in 1992 this way:
The American Jewish Committee, the pioneer human
relations agency in the United States, protects the rights and freedoms of Jews
the world over and works for the security of Israel. The local chapter sponsors
interfaith and intergroup activities, gives an annual high school Human
Relations Award, a Community Relations Award and an Institute of Human
Relations Award to outstanding citizens in the Buffalo area. It deals with
Jewish communal affairs, public policy and legislative activities state-side
and nationally and actively combats anti-Semitism and bigotry.
Excerpts from the 50th Anniversary (1993) bulletin essay "How We
Began" follow:
The Buffalo Chapter was born out of a long-brewing conflict over
Palestine - those who urged caution and those who, stirred by stories of Jewish
massacres in Europe and British intransigence in Palestine, wanted immediate
action. A meeting, held at the Hotel Statler, to select Buffalo delegates for
an American Jewish Conference sent David Diamond and Emil Rubenstein to New
York City. They along with other delegates, demanded by acclamation, the famous
Biltmore Resolution. This resolution demanded commonwealth status for
Palestine, the end of the 1939 White Paper, and a Jewish Army to defend the
Yishuv from the Axis.
The process of organizing a Buffalo Chapter began with Eugene Warner
in 1943 and 1944. Judge Samuel J. Harris chaired the organization from
1945-1948 when Sol. J. Levy took over as chair. Haskell Stovroff became
treasurer in 1946 and vice-chair in 1948. Other officers in those early years
between 1945 and 1958 were Arthur J. Goldberg, Mrs. Heffran J. Cohen, Nathan P.
Himmel, Dr. Robert Warner, Mrs. Richard H. Barmon and Judge Philip Halpern.
Chapter Chairmen who followed were Alfred M. Saperston, Stanley G. Falk, Paul
P. Cohen, Richard H. Wile and Edward H. Kavinoky.
The chapter's operation was based primarily on the concept of support
for the national organization. These chairmen had not considered the chapter as
a vehicle for involvement in programming on a community level. Meetings were
held sporadically, membership averaged around 150. Chapter leaders included
Howard Saperston, Judge Philip Halpern, Rabbi Louis J. Kopald, Rabbi Joseph L.
Fink, Dorothy Goldberg, Harry Fleischmann, Frances Proskauer Cohen, Joseph
Markel, Maurice Tabor, Judge Louis W. Marcus, Herman Wile, Frederick Ullman,
Arthur Ball, Arthur Victor, Jr., Lester Gross, Robert O. Swados, Harold Ehrlich
and Joseph Desmond.
Early programs dealt with separatism, non-sectarian scout groups,
self-segregation, prevention of a Passion Play in Buffalo, desecration of
religious organizations with swastikas, hate mail, the Arab Boycott and the
endorsement of the New York State Fair Housing Law. In addition, Dr. Morris N.
Kertzer spoke on "Jews in Russia Today." A Civil Rights Symposium was held with
guest speaker Dean Clyde Ferguson. There was also a panel discussion on "The
Pursuit of Human Equality."
Buffalo Chapter's name was changed to the Buffalo-Niagara Frontier
Chapter under the recommendation of Paul P. Cohen and the first newsletter was
printed in 1956 under the chairmanship of Richard H. Wile.
The middle years of Buffalo Chapter, 1959-1980, saw many changes. The
chapter held more programs. Under Mrs. Benjamin Obletz's chairmanship, the
chapter's first woman chairperson, the Community Relations Award was born with
Paul P. Cohn receiving the very first award. Chapter Chairmen were Robert O.
Swados, Lauren D. Rachlin, Arnold B. Gardner, Mrs. Benjamin Obletz, Richard
Lipsitz, Jay E. Brett, Wayne D. Wisbaum, Ralph L. Halpern, Edwin A. Wolf, and
Stephen M. Newman.
Programming during these years included co-chairing the Jewish Book
Fair with Norman Podhoretz as guest speaker. The Chapter worked closely with
the Students for Israel Group at the University of Buffalo where we provided
advice and financial cooperation. Some of the programs on campus included "The
New Left and Israel" with guest speaker Jerry Rifkin, and "Jewish Youth on
Campus: A Hemispheric View" with Dr. Abraham Monk.
"Where the Rainbow Ends", an Interfaith Rock Service held its world
premier in 1972 in Buffalo. Cantor Raymond Smolover, the composer, was
commissioned by Buffalo Chapter to create this Interfaith Service. The
Department of Religious Studies at Canisius College and the Buffalo Council of
Churches co-sponsored. The Chapter played a significant role with civic and
other non-profit organizations in discouraging attention at the Western New
York Nazi Rally that was planned for Buffalo in 1980.
The period from 1980 to 1993 was summarized at the 50th anniversary:
Shirley T. Joseph assumed the first paid staff position in 1980 for a
brief period. Marlene Glickman became Area Director in 1981 and was still in
that position at the 50th anniversary. Presidents from 1981 to 1994 were:
Joanne Biltekoff, Joan Ellis Shatkin, Fred Holender, Sylvia R. Ginsberg,
Richard J. Lippes, David M. Dunkelman, Judith H. Katz, Dr. Allan L. Korn, and
Laurence B. Oppenheimer.
Programs of major significance include an Interfaith Teacher Training
Program sponsored by the AJC, the Council of Churches and the National
Conference for Community and Justice. A Community Interfaith Dialogue Program
co-sponsored by the Community Relations Council of the Buffalo Jewish
Federation created a pilot project which brought together the Jewish community
with representatives of Buffalo Area Metropolitan Ministries (BAMM) to explore
political and social topics of importance. Twelve Jewish and non-Jewish
congregations met on a continual basis for several years. A summer picnic on
the Nichols School grounds and a mission to Israel were part of this Dialogue.
Arnold and Sue Gardner joined a national eight member delegation for
an audience with Pope John Paul II that commemorated the 20th anniversary of
Vatican Council II and its adoption of the historic declaration - "Nostra
Acetate." A conference on Catholic-Jewish Relations, The Unfinished Agenda,
co-sponsored by the Buffalo Board of Rabbis and the CRC brought Rabbi A. James
Rudin and Dr. Eugene Fisher to Buffalo as keynote speakers.
The annual High School Human Relations Award was created in 1986.
Workshops were conducted for teachers on creating intergroup relations
programs, for Black and Jewish students on the SUNY campus that addressed
discrimination and racism and a dialogue "Addressing Diversity in the 1990's"
that brought together Blacks, Hindus, Moslems and Christians. Ongoing programs
were established with the Polish community through the Polish-Jewish Task
Force, and the Black community through the African American - Jewish American
Task Force. Co-sponsored with BAMM was the 1991 conference "Harmony Amidst
Diversity" which continued to have annual seminars. Other major seminars
included "The Media and Its Impact, the Annual Racial Justice Meeting with the
YWCA, Jewish Women on the Way Up with the Foundation for Jewish Philanthropies,
the Peace Bridge Conference with the Better Business Bureau of Western New
York, the annual Interfaith Community Seder, and the two part seminar on
Community Policing and Policing Buffalo in the 1990's held at City Hall.
The period following the 50th anniversary in 1993 is reflected well in
this collection. The 1999-2000 calendar shows continued interfaith and
historical Jewish programming and annual award dinners. The Chapter disbanded
in 2007.
Records of the American Jewish Committee - Buffalo/Niagara Chapter
primarily from its final 20 years of operation documenting interfaith and
Jewish heritage programming and community awards.
