| Let Justice Well Up like Water: Progressive Jews from Hillel to Helen Suzman |
By Bennett Muraskin
Progressive secular Jews need their heroes - and here are 62 of them! Concise biographies of anarchists, Bundists, communists, socialists, social reformers, labor leaders, anti-fascist resisters, Zionists, feminists, journalists, writers, historians and performing artists across the Jewish world and timeline. Heroes, but not hero worship; rather, critical assessments of their life and work.
Includes profiles of 19 women and eight architects of Yiddish culture, four pre-modern figures, as well as five modern religious Jews. What ties the 62 together? A shared commitment to universal human rights and social justice within a Jewish historical, cultural or ethical context.

God-Optional Judaism :
Alternatives for Cultural Jews Who Love Their History, Heritage, and Community |
By Judith Seid Citadel Press , 2001.
Judith asks the question, "Do you have to believe in God to be a practicing Jew?," and then goes on to answer the question using the historical development of the Jewish belief traditions as the model. She understands, and clearly presents the abundance of belief traditions beyond the common sectarian traditions known us, and references historical Jewish texts to support her research. This book is a virtual blueprint for the Secular Jewish Movement and the creation of Secular Jewish communities.
