By examining Jewish experiences between the American Civil War and
the African American Civil Rights Revolution, this book focuses on
citizens who usually spent their daily lives in Black and white
"peoplehoods." Some of the white ones, commanding the nation's
"public square," structured a segregated republic and capitalist
economy that would experience WWII and the news about the Holocaust
that murdered millions of Jews. This political economy sustained a
hierarchy of privatized ethnic groups whose race and religion, in
their norms of "ethnicking," was used to deprive them of legal and
equal collective standing. This Was America is a book about those
privatized identities that the years of the Civil Rights Revolution
would bring into the republic's public square.
