SUMMARY:Marty Glickman: The Life of an American Jewish Sports Legend - faci
 litated by Howard Schickler
DESCRIPTION:Via Zoom - visit our secure website for the link\n\nThe next st
 op on Howard Schickler's Random Walk Through Jewish History an Culture wil
 l be to the sports arenas of New York City in the interwar period through 
 the rest of the 20th Century.\n\nThe story of Marty Glickman is also the s
 tory of finding a way to succeed in an America that was often less than we
 lcoming to Jews.\n\nThe story includes Glickman's encounter with the antis
 emitism of Avery Brundage and the American Olympics Committee that prevent
 ed him and another Jewish co-athlete from competing in the 1936 Berlin Oly
 mpics\, his relations with black sports figures and his resistance along w
 ith other ethnic sports figures to pressures to change their last names.\n
 \nThe tone is set by the author's fond memories of Glickman and growing up
  as an avid Jewish sports fan.\n\nThe presentation is also full of anecdot
 es illustrating the problems\, prospects and humorous aspects of becoming 
 American while remaining proudly Jewish.\n\nHoward may find interesting ar
 ticles about Marty and his era. If you would like to receive copies please
