DJ has some wear and soiling. Distributed by the American Jewish Alternatives to Zionism, Inc.

The authors argue that Zionism is a principal obstacle to peace. Roselle Tekiner received academic degrees from the University of Chicago (BA), Columbia University (MA), and the City of New York Graduate Center (Ph. D), and taught at Hunter College, Fairleigh Dickinson University, New College, and Eckerd College. She lived in New York for much of her adult life with her first husband, Sami Tekiner, an immigrant from Turkey who sparked her interest in Turkish society and culture. She and Sami owned the Bremen House on East 86th Street and the German News Company. In 1973, Roselle Tekiner moved to Sarasota, Florida, where she met Rabbi Elmer Berger, a leader in the U.S. anti-Zionist movement. Berger, who became her second husband, channeled her interest in the Middle East toward the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. She and Berger, champions of Palestinian rights, wrote extensively on citizenship and nationality in Israel. Their scholarly papers and correspondence are archived in the Rare Book and Manuscript Library, Columbia University. Roselle Tekiner's life is chronicled in her memoir, Go Laughing.
