Initially concerned with Jews suffering pogroms in the Russian Empire, the AJC had as its primary goal to “prevent infringement of the civil and religious rights of Jews and to alleviate the consequences of persecution.” Since then, the organization has fought general discrimination and worked on behalf of social equality, playing a major role in the civil rights movement in the 1950s and 1960s. It has also supported the publication of numerous books and book series on Jewish and interfaith issues.
