Traces of the 1960s in the Alex Dworkin Canadian Jewish Archives
Abstract
The Alex Dworkin Canadian Jewish Archives (formerly known as the Canadian Jewish Congress Charities Committee National Archives) is a Montreal-based archive under the auspices of the Jewish Federations of Canada-UIA. The author outlines the archival records from the 1960s in the Alex Dworkin Canadian Jewish Archives that covered such topics as: discrimination and hate speech in general, as well as Canadian Nazis in particular; Canada’s exploration of Bilingualism and Biculturalism, and its rising involvement in postwar restitution and in remembrance of the Holocaust; Jewish immigration from Morocco and the Soviet Union; and voting rights for Jews within Montreal’s Protestant school system, and an interest in the creation of a school for newly immigrated Francophone Jews.
