Jews have been active members or supporters of the civil rights movement since its inception, believing that when racial discrimination is eliminated by the government, society also will not tolerate religious discrimination. They may be very wrong about this connection, unfortunately.
Ironic that the Jewish merchants and later the Asian merchants were the targets (burned out stores) of black rioters since the 60s whenever "Burn baby burn " occurred
And no neighborhoods emptied out faster when the blacks moved in than the Jewish enclaves in our big cities

A lot of the movement by Jews from old, poorer urban neighborhoods arose after the second second generation of Jewish immigrants became more economically successful and entered the middle class.
