So did whites.Jews arrived here impoverished, uneducated, not speaking English, and having doors slammed in their faces due to antisemitism. They formed tight communities, opened little businesses and hired one another, banded together to buy tenement buildings and rented to one another, and formed night schools to teach English.
By the next generation, their children were successful college-educated professionals or business owners.
And they did it all without screaming about antisemitism or demanding freebies. They were just happy to be in America, the land of opportunity.
My parents, uncle, and aunt all went from tenement slums to home ownership in the space of 10 years.
Would just like to see him analyze their “wealth gap” to everyone else. He would either have to admit he hates Jews for being wealthy, or admit “minority groups” can make it in America.
