Partisans - Description:
- Translated Summary. Apologies for not promptly answering letter of July 29. Assumes that Bitter, Wertheim and Pirski have already given a detailed report about their visit to the States. The "Joint" caused problems, resulting in their addressing many fewer people than would have been ideal. Personal greetings.
- Notes:
- Rayski is one of the founders in 1944 of CRIF (Conseil représentatif des institutions juives de France) and of the earlier Comité général de défense juive
The Jewish People’s Fraternal Order was the largest ‘national’ section of the International Workers Order (IWO) which focused on cultural awareness and celebration, mutual support especially in health insurance coverage, and anti-fascist activities. The IWO also gave particular emphasis to supporting the rights and interests of African Americans.
