[RUSSIAN ANTI-SEMITISM] Raby i rabovladel'tsy [Slaves and Slaveholders]

New York, NY: 1921. Item #1017

This pamphlet, is a single folded sheet measuring 27.5 x 33 cm, printed on both sides, and showing signs of wear and tear along the edges. Published in New York in March 1921 by B. Tur, it represents the National Union for the Defense of the Russian Orthodox Church and the League of Russian Defense. The pamphlet is a political and ideological artifact, laden with anti-Semitic sentiments and criticisms of socialism and the Russian Revolution.

The pamphlet opens by denouncing revolutionaries as rebellious slaves rather than genuine revolutionaries, asserting that socialism is a law for slaves created by Jews portrayed as slaveholders. It is filled with anti-Semitic rhetoric, blaming Jews for the revolution and the downfall of Russia, and mentioning figures like Aron Kirbis (a pseudonym for Alexander Kerensky) in derogatory terms. The text draws parallels between past and present struggles, depicting Jews as a consistent threat to Russian society and alleging that they have infiltrated and controlled significant political and social institutions globally. The pamphlet calls for resistance against Jewish influence, urging Russian emigres to unite in defense of traditional values and the Russian Orthodox Church.

*It serves as a historical document, reflecting the biases and ideologies of its time and offering educational and historical insights rather than endorsing the offensive views it expresses.
