GOLDMAN, Emma. Anti-racist Jewish Lithuanian and thence American and Canadian anarchist: "I have for many years opposed Zionism as the dream of capitalist Jewry... to protect the privileges of the few against the many"

Emma Goldman (anti-racist Jewish Lithuanian and thence American and Canadian anarchist writer and activist ) (1938): “I have no quarrel with our good friend [Reginald Reynolds] about his charges against the Zionists. In point of fact I have for many years opposed Zionism as the dream of capitalist Jewry the world over for a Jewish State with all its trimmings, such as Government, laws, police, militarism and the rest. In other words, a Jewish State machinery to protect the privileges of the few against the many” (Emma Goldman, “On Zionism”, 1938, reprinted in ‘British Imperialism & The Palestine Crisis: Selections from the Anarchist Journal ‘Freedom’ 1938–1948’, London: Freedom Press, 1989, pp. 24–27, The Anarchist Library: http://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/emma-goldman-on-zionism ).
