Summary

This study commissioned by the Ford Foundation, studied black-Jewish relations in New York City to determine points of contact between the groups and delineate current and future conflict areas. Attitudes underlying conflict or cooperation as well as perceptions of non-black, non-Jewish population were also examined. Questions were asked in the areas of race relations, discrimination, alienation, community relations, anti-Semitism, integration, religion, violence, and black and Jewish relations. This survey is related to the HAR69JEW (Jewish sample) and the HAR69NJW (sample consisting of only non-Jewish-whites).
