This communication presents a critical examination of the relationship between Jewish conduct and anti-Semitic prejudice in response to Judd Teller's article "Negroes and Jews." The primary correspondent, Theodore N. Lewis, employs historical analysis and contemporary examples to challenge the prevalent assumption that Jewish behavior influences anti-Jewish sentiment. The methodology involves comparative historical examination, drawing from Nazi persecution patterns, the Haskala period, and Malcolm X's autobiography as evidence. Lewis argues that anti-Semitism persists independently of Jewish conduct, citing Hitler's indiscriminate persecution and Malcolm X's continued hostility despite acknowledging Jewish assistance. The analysis addresses Negro anti-Semitism in urban contexts, particularly concerning Jewish landlords and merchants in Harlem, arguing that singling out Jewish exploitation while ignoring similar Christian practices constitutes a fallacious approach that inadvertently supports anti-Semitic narratives. The study concludes that anti-Semitic prejudice stems from deeper societal and religious conditioning rather than Jewish behavior, asserting that even exemplary Jewish conduct would not eliminate anti-Jewish sentiment. The communication demonstrates that attributing anti-Semitism to Jewish actions represents both historical misunderstanding and strategic error in combating prejudice.
