Current revision

Norman Ravitch is a professor emeritus of history at University of California, Riverside. He currently writes occasional pieces for the Rockwell Foundation and other right-libertarian think-tanks. Ravitch is known for his assertion that "It remains more than doubtful that the black population of America, or the rest of us, have really benefited from integration and civil rights legislation." Also, writing a book review on WWII Poland, he states: "While the Nazis of course had treated the Poles in murderous fashion the Poles at least could take pleasure in the fact that the Germans were doing what they would like to have done but did not have the discipline or the means -- namely kill the Jews who had outlived their precarious welcome in the new Poland." And: "Yes, Zionism can be called racist. But so what! What Jews need to do in my humble opinion is to accept the valid Zionist challenge: go to Israel or cease to be Jews! That is the only solution to the Jewish Question."
