Martin Gold
The Martin Gold Collection opens a window on the aspirations and apprehensions of Connecticut Jews during the last few decades of the twentieth century. Of particular note are the records regarding anti-Semitic groups, the Nation of Islam, and the treatment of religion in the public schools. Most of the material in the collection is from the 1980s and 1990s.
