Jewish Museum Rightly Valued At $66M, Judge Says
Law360 (April 6, 2021, 9:27 PM EDT) A Pennsylvania federal judge Tuesday ratified a bankruptcy court s finding that a bankrupt Philadelphia Jewish history museum s property is worth $66 million, saying the museum management s $10.5 million estimate doesn t factor its own intention to keep running the building as a museum.
In her order, U.S. District Judge Wendy Beetlestone said the bankruptcy court judge was right to accept the higher valuation proposed by the secured lenders for the downtown Philadelphia location of the National Museum of American Jewish History, saying as a legal standard the museum s intention to keep using the building means it can t be valued as if it.
The The Morris-George Washington-Haym Salomon Monument in Heald Square, Chicago
A public monument featuring Revolutionary War financier Haym Saloman, a Polish-Jewish American businessman, may be removed from where it stands in Chicago’s Heald Square. The monument, along with 40 others, is under review by the Chicago Monument Project as part of the city’s effort to “address the hard truths of Chicago’s racial history.”
The project was launched by Chicago’s City Hall six months ago in the wake of the murder of George Floyd and the national reckoning on systemic racism, and originally included a collection of over 500 public monuments, commemorative plaques, and artworks. Now, Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot is calling for a public discussion on a selected few, including The Robert Morris-George Washington-Haym Salomon Monument.

The death of Rep. John Lewis comes at a particularly fraught time for blacks and Jews in America.
A series of nasty Twitter-fueled feuds have consumed both communities. Black celebrities from the worlds of sports and music have echoed the anti-Semitic ideas of Louis Farrakhan and the Black Hebrew movement. Jews have reacted with outrage and hurt. Blacks have either dug in or, in the cases of TV host Nick Cannon and former NBA star Stephen Jackson, listened to their more thoughtful critics and apologized.
