Hmmm. Maybe it’s Ezra Pound’s fault.

It’s just a guess, but I’ll bet Bellow’s tribal instincts had something to do with it. His tribemates Jeff Simon, Philip Roth, Karl Shapiro, Isaac Rosenfeld, and Delmore Schwartz could maybe explain.

The NAACP is releasing a report on race in the Tea Party (“Tea Partiers are white people angry at losing their country blah blah.” If only that were so . . . ). The author of the report is one Leonard Ziskind, a man who has written extensively on white nationalism and is a lifelong member of the NAACP. In his spare time, Leonard manages to work on behalf of the Kansas City Jewish Community Relations Bureau. On his web page, he says that “I am president of the Institute for Research & Education on Human Rights, which examines racism, anti-Semitism and far-right social movements; analyzes their intersection with civil society and social policy; educates the public; and assists in the protection and extensions of human rights.” No word on whether Leonard has found time to analyze jewish ethnocentrism, its role in far-left movements, and the corrosive effects of such movements on the people who allowed jews into their country.
