TL;DR — A short late-1960s profile of the ADL in the journal Race: its 1913 founding, aims, divisions and programmes, including a University of California study of prejudice.

Five pages (pp. 368–372) from the British journal Race, published for the Institute of Race Relations: the end of the notes to a preceding article on immigrant and Jewish communities in Britain, then an unsigned profile of the Anti-Defamation League, then conference and research notes that mention a September 1968 meeting, which dates the issue to about 1969.

The profile recounts the ADL’s founding by B’nai B’rith in 1913 in Sigmund Livingston’s Chicago office, quotes its charter’s aims, describes its civil-rights and programme divisions, its regional offices and presidential praise, and notes that it funded a $500,000 study of the origins of prejudice by a University of California research team.

What it is: a brief, descriptive item in an academic journal, close to the organisation’s own self-description. Publisher copy, downloaded through a university library.
