Does the Jewish Community Relations Council do . The truth is that the jc rc is the umbrella body for the organized Jewish Community in the bay area, representing the Jewish Community on the vitally important Public Affairs issues, domestic and international, ranging from israel to the civil rights, antisemitism and quality public education. We started just after the holocaust windy american Jewish Community realized the absence of the body, a fatal flaw in the Jewish Community, and we should not be in a position where we cannot bring together a full range of voices within the Jewish Community so that we can advocate effectively on the issues. In a moment, we will get to what drew you to dedicate your life to the organization, and it seems natural to ask at this point, what is the role of the faith based structure in the civic life of the community, especially when you have a country that values separation of church and state, and we are always struggling with the civic issues.

Stayed in their own political taverns, they got in a fight in the streets and it was really bad. Madison needed them brought together.

People never forgot her for that. She was a bit of a street angel and home devil. She cleverly did that. And she did as katie was saying, their notes where she brought issues mainly three wives that came to her through their husbands. But that is is wha
It is tremendously significant to show the contributions not just for africanamericans but all americans to show this is indeed our country and we contributed to it just as as much as anybody else if not more. How do you see the museum fitting into the larger story line with the passage of the civil right and the first africanamerican president is opening the museum. Does the museum itself have a larger role in history . I cannot continue to think of the 44th president of the United States and for example when he was first sworn in or first won the primary even it was on the eve of the march on washington. When he was sworn in it was right after the birthday of dr. Martin luther king. Now before he leaves office, after serving eight years as the president of the United States, this magnificent, museum is opening. When children look at the grand opening of the museum they will see the picture of the first africanamerican president of the United States. I think of it not only in the cont
