The importance of blacks for Jews and Jews for blacks in conceiving of themselves as Americans is a matter of voluminous but perplexing record. This work of literary criticism and cultural history draws on politics, sociology, law, religion, and popular culture to illuminate a vital, highly conflicted interethnic partnership over a century.
