The stock arguments of anti-Semites are refuted in “Why Be An Anti-Semite?”, by the prominent Brazilian writer, Vanderlei, which has just been published here.
The book is full of evidence by means of which Vanderlei proves that anti-Semitism is the result of ignorance about the Jew, of his literature and of his contributions to the culture of every land in which he makes his home.
