Thank you to the rabbi for that remarkable introduction. I have to say that the subject of my lecture not only concerns a historic event, but actually put my academic career in jeopardy. In 1982, i was a young faculty member at the Hebrew Union College Jewish Institute of religion in cincinnati, and i was invited to deliver a talk before the institutions board of overseers. This was an important rite of passage for a new faculty member. And i was determined to prove myself. Since 1982 coincided with the 120th anniversary of ulysses s. Grants general orders number 11 expelling jews as a class from his war zone, i decided to take that infamous 1862 order as my subject. Grants order was the most notorious official act of antisemitism in American History. It is really the only time that jews as a class had been expelled from anywhere in the united states. And around 1982, new information concerning that order had become available from the association that published ulysses s. Grants papers
