Brandeis on Zionism Louis D Brandeis

"The Moral Symbol of Zionism Throughout the World."




The first Jew to serve on the U. S. Supreme Court, Brandeis [1856- 1941] was known for his liberal stand on issues of social justice. As a public citizen, he was known for his commitment to Zionism. Brandeis on Zionism is a collection of thirty-two addresses and statements that trace the evolution of his views on this issue. It includes "A Call to the Educated Jew," "The Jewish People Should be Preserved," "Every Jew is a Zionist," "The Victory of the Maccabees" and "The Common Cause of the Jewish People." In his Foreword Frankfurter calls Brandeis "the moral symbol of Zionism throughout the world."
