The Jewish Origins of Cultural Pluralism

The Menorah Association and American Diversity

By: Daniel Greene

Daniel Greene traces the emergence of the idea of cultural pluralism to the lived experiences of a group of Jewish college students and public intellectuals, including the philosopher Horace M. Kallen. These young Jews faced particular challenges as they sought to integrate themselves into the American academy and literary world of the early 20th century. At Harvard University, they founded an influential student organization known as the Menorah Association in 1906 and later the Menorah Journal, which became a leading voice of Jewish public opinion in the 1920s. In response to the idea that the American melting pot would erase all cultural differences, the Menorah Association advocated a pluralist America that would accommodate a thriving Jewish culture while bringing Jewishness into mainstream American life.

Nine Novels by Younger Americans

By: Sara Bradshaw,Rachel Barber,Daniel Cowen

This anthology collects nine exceptional novels that were written by high school students from New York City during the summer of 2005 in 826NYC's Young Adult Writers' Colony. Ranging from comedic, to fiercly political, to deeply personal, these novels are immensely entertaining and forecast a bright future for this brand new generation of novelists. As novelist Richard Powers says in his foreword, There comes a time when we must decide whether we love the world enough to hand it over to its next lover . . . [This is a book of] nine worlds that nine people could not find and so had to make themselves. Here it is before you: how the story ends this time. And how it starts again.

Halle Berry

By: Daniel O'Brien

Born in Cleveland in 1968, Halley Berry first gained the public’s attention in 1986 as a runner-up in the Miss USA Pageant. When she turned to acting, her career took off with a key role in Spike Lee’s 1991 film Jungle Fever. It wasn’t until 1999, however, with her Golden Globe-winning performance in Introducing Dorothy Dandridge, that she began to make a real impact in the film world. In 2001, she was cast in the smash-hit X-Men, and in 2002, she delivered her extraordinary, Oscar-winning performance in Monster’s Ball. Berry next crossed paths with Pierce Brosnan in the James Bond extravaganza Die Another Day. In this book, Daniel O’ Brien gives us a fascinating glimpse of an actress on her way to the top. The author’s most recent books are The Hannibal Files and Cameron Diaz.
