Iraqi-Jews Rally Correspondence and Statements, 1969
Scope and Contents
This Series is the heart of the SCA Collection, containing files on the multitude of activities emanating from the SCA and its Committees, Task Forces, and Commissions.
Though the collection does not make a direct correlation connecting this Series to Subseries G: Standing Committees and Subseries H: Committees, Commissions, and Task Forces, some of the materials overlap and should be used in conjunction with this series.
Much of the actions of the Committees resulted in Activities from the larger SCA community. Each of these actions had a source, that source being either the SCA Committees, the organizational hierarchy, or the factions of the SCA, Orthodox, Reform, and Conservative Jews. Some materials also may have sprung out of ad-hoc committees.
Also included are files on meetings with certain officials including Abba Eban (Minister of Foreign Affairs, Israel); Israeli Prime Minister Levi Eshkol; Greek Orthodox Archbishop George Hakim; Rev. William Granger Ryan; President Zalman Shazar of Israel; and a reception with Haim Zohar.
