The play, "Do Jewish Lives Matter", arose out of the Crown Heights Riot in Brooklyn, a Pogrom where a Black boy was accidentally killed by a Hasidic driver with devastating results. James Baldwin, the famous Negro writer, as far back as 1948 wrote, Georgia has the Negro as a target of hatred. Harlem has the Jew. In 1973 Rabbi Kahane wrote, "In no way should we refuse to see the danger to Jews that comes from Black hatred. It is of epidemic proportions." And again in 1977, when addressing an audience, he said, "In Crown Heights, where poor Jews live side by side with Blacks and are regularly robbed, mugged, terrorized, a Black explosion against them is inevitable."

Rabbi Meir Kahane was arrested approximately 70 times throughout his lifetime. In Israel alone, around 60 times, and the rest in the United States. Most arrests happened in the 1970's. He spent around 5 years of his life in jail. During that time, he continued to write and study.Rabbi Meir KahaneNovember 4, 1990...died....age 58My task, I considered, to report a great historical figure to the advance guard of humanity for emulation.Brecht, "Letter to the Theater Union"
