"Of all forms of discrimination," write Epstein and Forster, "employment discrimination is the least virulent because non-Jews profess themselves more willing to work than to live alongside Jews or to associate with them on a personal-friendship basis. For this reason, in untangling the web of anti-Jewish discrimination in the U.S., employment discrimination is probably the easiest target . . . Since discrimination against Jews—or any other minority group—in any form is interdependent and interrelated with all other forms, the elimination of any single facet of this undemocratic phenomenon weakens all the others. And this is the goal of all decent-minded Americans."
