Told through essays, memoirs, and other musings, this is the story
of a radical Jew, academic, and educator from his birth in Ukraine
during the Holocaust through the radical 60s and 70s ,to the
present day as he fights anti-Semitism, anti-Zionism, xenophobia,
and hate. Internationally known in Holocaust, genocide, and Jewish
studies, Jack Nusan Porter was born in Maniewicz, Ukraine to Jewish
Partisans in the 1940s. Through this engaging and thoughtful
memoir, we follow Porter as he recounts his personal journey from a
DP camp in Linz, Austria to an idyllic childhood in Milwaukee,
Wisconsin where he attended Hebrew day school under Reb Twersk.
Porter masterfully details his radicalism in the politically-
and sociologically- turbulent 1960s which would later influence his
academic work on genocide, Holocaust studies, and international
human rights. Constantly re-inventing himself, readers are treated
to engaging anecdotes as they navigate through Porter's highs,
lows, and in-betweens.
