Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Manhattan's Lower East Side stands for Jewish experience in America. With the possible exception of African-Americans and Harlem, no ethnic group has been so thoroughly understood and imagined through a particular chunk of space. Despite the fact that most American Jews have never set foot there--and many come from families that did not immigrate through New York much less reside on Hester or Delancey Street--the Lower East Side is firm in their collective memory. Whether they have been there or not, people reminisce about the Lower East Side as the place where life pulsated, bread tasted better, relationships were richer, tradition thrived, and passions flared. This was not always so. During the years now fondly recalled (1880-1930), the neighborhood was only occasionally called the Lower East Side. Though largely populated by Jews from Eastern Europe, it was not ethnically or even religiously homogenous. The tenements, grinding poverty, sweatshops, and packs of roaming children were considered the stuff of social work, not nostalgia and romance. To learn when and why this dark warren of pushcart-lined streets became an icon, Hasia Diner follows a wide trail of high and popular culture. She examines children's stories, novels, movies, museum exhibits, television shows, summer-camp reenactments, walking tours, consumer catalogues, and photos hung on deli walls far from Manhattan. Diner finds that it was after World War II when the Lower East Side was enshrined as the place through which Jews passed from European oppression to the promised land of America. The space became sacred at a time when Jews were simultaneously absorbing the enormity of the Holocaust and finding acceptance and opportunity in an increasingly liberal United States. Particularly after 1960, the Lower East Side gave often secularized and suburban Jews a biblical, yet distinctly American story about who they were and how they got here. Displaying the author's own fondness for the Lower East Side of story books, combined with a commitment to historical truth, Lower East Side Memories is an insightful account of one of our most famous neighborhoods and its power to shape identity.

The United States has always been the land of the immigrant. Men of many different races are itg citizens, and have made it great among the nations. Columbus, an Italian, with four Jews in his ship's company, discovered this western world. Another Italian gave it the name of America. The Spaniard! explored it, and planted their flags on it. The English followed, colonizing the land. The Dutch founded New York City. France settled eastern Canada. In tha colonial days, also, Germans made settlements in Pennsylvania. Swedes built homes along the Delaware. Scotch and Huguenots went to the Carolinas to form their plantations. The English gradually acquired power over all of these peoples within the territory that is now called the United States. In course of time they abused their power. They loaded the struggling colonists with unjust taxes, and oppressed them in countless ways. In the end, the colonists rose in revolt, and fought together for their liberty. Their victorious army was composed of soldiers of many different races; Jewish blood was shed on every battlefield; Haym Solomon, a Jew, gave his whole princely fortune to the cause of liberty. And when England called home her defeated battalions in 1781, our ancestors, united in victory, formed the union of a new nation. In the early days of the Republic immigrants still kept coming, and helped build up the nation to power. But progress was so slow and the country so vast that when sixty years ago immigration began on a vaster scale, the greater part of the land was still uninhabited. In 1850 it was the Germans and Irish who crowded to our welcoming shores in great numbers. They soon became friends and Americans, and in 1861 again proved human brotherhood, for...
